Recently, I used the file upload control when using canvas to process image pixels, and discovered two compatibility issues with the file upload control. One is that the width of the file upload control cannot be changed through CSS in Firefox, and the other is that the appearance and behavior of the file upload control are different in different browsers.
The following is a screenshot of the file upload control in IE10, firefox16, chrome22, opera12, safari5.1.7:
In IE10, double-clicking the input box or clicking the button will pop up the file selection box. Clicking the input box, button or text in other browsers can trigger the file selection box.
Given this chaos, it is necessary to unify styles and behaviors. Below is my compatibility scheme.
First take a look at the screenshots of the final results in each browser:
Basic idea: create input boxes and buttons to simulate file upload controls. Set the file upload control to transparent. Align the file upload control to the right of the button used for simulation. Modify the stacking order of the elements so that the button is at the bottom, the file upload control is in the middle, and the input box is at the top. After the file selection is completed, assign the value in the file upload control to the input box used for simulation.
Principle: In different browsers, the height of the button of the file upload control is adjustable, and the right side of the file upload control can be clicked. Therefore, by adjusting the height of the file upload control and adjusting the position of the file upload control (right-aligned), the clickable area of the file upload control can be completely covered by the button used for simulation. When the file upload control is transparent and the user clicks the button used for simulation, the file selection box is triggered. But at the same time, the stacking order of the file upload control cannot precede the input box used for simulation. Otherwise, when the user places the mouse on the input box they see, they may see that the cursor is not indicating text but an arrow (and an arrow The file selection box will pop up when clicked) and the user will be confused.
Implementation: First look at the html part of the code.
