I am hiding the file inputs and then parsing the data from the file input
onchange and placing it into a dummy text field so that there are no paths
etc when the end user views it. As you know, some browsers prepend the path
to the name in the file input and I wasn't thrilled with that. By trimming
the path and displaying only the file name looked more appealing. The end
user wants to have their own add/delete buttons for the images rather than
the standard "choose" button. The odd thing is that when I use the DOM
inspector in FF it shows that the image has the click attribute so I am not
sure why it's not firing. Would it beneficial to show all of the code or is
there enough mentioned to see why the click event fails? Odd that FF does
not show any errors or warnings in the error console.


Thanks

Steffan
