Non-standard
This feature is non-standard and is not on a standards track. Do not use it on production sites facing the Web: it will not work for every user. There may also be large incompatibilities between implementations and the behavior may change in the future.
The ::-webkit-file-upload-button
CSS pseudo-element represents the button of an <input>
of type="file"
.
This pseudo-element is non-standard and only supported in WebKit/Blink compatible browsers like Chrome, Opera and Safari (indicated by the -webkit
prefix).
Syntax
selector::-webkit-file-upload-button
Examples
HTML
<form> <label for="fileUpload">Upload file</label><br> <input type="file" id="fileUpload"> </form>
CSS
input, label { display: block; } input[type=file]::-webkit-file-upload-button { border: 1px solid grey; background: #FFFAAA; }
Below is the example for you to try. The screenshot to the left shows what the button will look like if you are without access to Chrome, Opera or Safari.
