hi all,

was wondering if any of you could enlighten me as to adding style to the "browse" button on an input tag? the rest of my page is looking pretty and color coordinated, but it's this browse button that just seems to stick out. and i don't wanna change the layout of my entire page to gray to match the button. help always appreciated. thanks!

You can do that by simply adding the style sheets you want to the <input> tag:

<input type="file" style="border: 1px solid #000000; background: #ffee33; background-image: url("button-bg.gif");">

something like this should do you

code:

<html>

<head>

<script language="JavaScript">

function fBrowseForFile() {

	var objFileBrowser = document.getElementById("fileBrowser");

	objFileBrowser.click();



	var strFileName= document.getElementById("strFileName");

	strFileName.value = objFileBrowser.value;

}

</script>

</head>

<body>

<form>



<input type="text" name="strFileName">

<img src="images/button.jpg" height="20" width="45" onClick="fBrowseForFile()"> 

<input type="file" name="fileBrowser" style="display: none">



</form>

</body>

</html>
