1. Is it possible to put some CSS into the "Browse..." button in the <input type="file">? Can I at least change the value from "browse" to something else?
2. I have an HTML page perfectly aligned to the right, but once I put it in a frameset, I get an unwanted spacing between the right of the page to the right border of the browser. The frameset page is:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC -//IETF//DTD HTML//EN>
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>bla bla bla</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<frameset framespacing=0 border=0 rows=100%,* cols=100% frameborder=no>
<frame name="top" noresize scrolling="auto" src="http://www.hek.co.il/shmulik/d-kanyon/index.asp">
<frame name="bottom" scrolling=no noresize>
</frameset>
</html>


Thanks in advanced.

There's no standard way and at least I've never heard or seen anyone doing that.

2. I have an HTML page perfectly aligned to the right, but once I put it in a frameset, I get an unwanted spacing between the right of the page to the right border of the browser.

Try adding following style def into body element's of documents :
<body style="padding:0px;margin:0px;">

I already have this style tags on the page.
The cause to this unwanted space is the frameset (when I open the same page with no frames there's no problems), you should also know that pages that have more text in it (with no <br>) strech the page and it's aligned right to the right.

You can't change what the Browser button says. You can apply a background-color and font face/color but that's it

the page with the frames in it, is in: http://2eilat.booxa.co.il
The original page (which is framed) is in: http://www.hek.co.il/shmulik/d-kanyon/index.asp

Thanks.

Try this:

<frameset framespacing=0 border=0 rows=100%,* cols=100% frameborder=no>
<frame name="top" noresize scrolling="auto" src="http://www.hek.co.il/shmulik/d-kanyon/index.asp" marginwidth="0", marginheight="0" >
<frame name="bottom" scrolling=no noresize>
</frameset>

I search and found this :)
Now I'm trying it and having troubles with it...
When I press the submit button, the form refuses to submit - so I made the type=file input visible to see what's going on and saw that once I press the submit button - the value in the realfile vanishes.
When I press submit twice it works (but still, no file uploads).
Adios? :rolleyes:

Adios' method, although clever, appears to be useless in Mozilla :(

Too bad. I've been wanting to style the type="file" boxes for a while.

Try giving the file input a name.

I realize this is old but google found me this before I found a real working solution. This allows you pretty much full control over the appearence of input type="file".
