Hi all,

I am relatively new to jQuery, so sorry if this question has an
obvious answer!

Our company just got the designs in for a new feature on our website.
It involves uploading a picture, so we need a <input type="file"/>
field.

However,  the design has a nicely styled link (read: image) instead of
the normal control.

I thought about styling a link and use that as a trigger to a hidden
upload field, which would then trigger the file browser once clicked
(i.e. in the style of the flickr uploader).

However, whilst trying to put a proof of concept together, I couldn't
get the file upload browser to open.

here is my code:
    $('#trigger').click(function(){
      $('#upload').trigger('click');
    });

Any help is really appreciated!

Cheers,

Gilles
P.S: anyone going to @media ajax in london? maybe see you there!
