Good morning,
I'm developing a web application and I need an horizontal input that lets the user select a value, but radio buttons are not an option.
I thought about using a input with range type, but this is not supported in IE 8 or 9.
Is there any way to show select options horizontally that works both in chrome and IE?
My html code is:
<select size="4">
<option value="volvo">Volvo</option>
<option value="saab">Saab</option>
<option value="mercedes">Mercedes</option>
<option value="audi">Audi</option>
</select>
It currently looks like this:
Is there any way to make the options show side by side? I tried adding inline-block display to the options, but nothing changes.
--- EDIT ---
I don't want to use radio buttons because I'm using js to create new items which the user can also select and with radio buttons I have to change the button names manually.
Is this what you're after?
select {
display:table-row;
}
option {
display:table-cell;
}

Your best bet is probably to use either checkboxes, or an unordered list with links:
<style type="text/css">
ul.selections { list-style:none; }
ul.selections li {display: inline; list-style-type: none; padding-right: 20px;}
div.selections input { margin-left:15px;}
div.selections input.first { margin-left:20px; }
</style>
<div class="selections">
<input type="checkbox" value="volvo" class="first"/> Volvo
<input type="checkbox" value="saab"/> Saab
<input type="checkbox" value="mercedes"/> Mercedes
<input type="checkbox" value="audi"/> Audi
</div>
<ul class="selections" >
<li>Volvo</li>
<li>Saab</li>
<li>Mercedes</li>
<li>Audi</li>
</ul>
you can use the links or onchecked of the checkboxes to fire JS events. To make it clear to the end user, you can add a "highlight" class to the elements from the JS event, and change the background colors as necessary.
I realize you've already accepted an answer, however this works too.
You can customize anything you want in it, including borders, background colours, etc.

Is it possible to change the appearance of <input type="file">?
You can’t modify much about the input[type=file] control itself.
Since clicking a label element correctly paired with an input will activate/focus it, we can use a label to trigger the OS browse dialog.
Here is how you can do it…
label {
cursor: pointer;
/* Style as you please, it will become the visible UI component. */
}
#upload-photo {
opacity: 0;
position: absolute;
z-index: -1;
}
<label for="upload-photo">Browse...</label>
<input type="file" name="photo" id="upload-photo" />
The CSS for the form control will make it appear invisible and not take up space in the document layout, but will still exist so it can be activated via the label.
If you want to display the user’s chosen path after selection, you can listen for the change event with JavaScript and then read the path that the browser makes available to you (for security reasons it can lie to you about the exact path). A way to make it pretty for the end user is to simply use the base name of the path that is returned (so the user simply sees the chosen filename).
There is a great guide by Tympanus for styling this.
Something like that maybe?
<form>
<input id="fileinput" type="file" style="display:none;"/>
</form>
<button id="falseinput">El Cucaratcha, for example</button>
<span id="selected_filename">No file selected</span>
<script>
$(document).ready( function() {
$('#falseinput').click(function(){
$("#fileinput").click();
});
});
$('#fileinput').change(function() {
$('#selected_filename').text($('#fileinput')[0].files[0].name);
});
</script>
<label for="fusk">dsfdsfsd</label>
<input id="fusk" type="file" name="photo" style="display: none;">
why not? ^_^
See the example here
If you're using Bootstrap here is a better solution:
<label class="btn btn-default btn-file">
Browse <input type="file" style="display: none;" required>
</label>
For IE8 and below: https://www.abeautifulsite.net/posts/whipping-file-inputs-into-shape-with-bootstrap-3/#legacy-approach-(ie8-and-below)

Easiest way..
<label>
Upload
<input type="file" style="visibility: hidden;"/>
</label>
The trick is hide the input and customize the label.
HTML:
<div class="inputfile-box">
<input type="file" id="file" class="inputfile" onchange='uploadFile(this)'>
<label for="file">
<span id="file-name" class="file-box"></span>
<span class="file-button">
<i class="fa fa-upload" aria-hidden="true"></i>
Select File
</span>
</label>
</div>
CSS:
.inputfile-box {
position: relative;
}
.inputfile {
display: none;
}
.container {
display: inline-block;
width: 100%;
}
.file-box {
display: inline-block;
width: 100%;
border: 1px solid;
padding: 5px 0px 5px 5px;
box-sizing: border-box;
height: calc(2rem - 2px);
}
.file-button {
background: red;
padding: 5px;
position: absolute;
border: 1px solid;
top: 0px;
right: 0px;
}
JS:
function uploadFile(target) {
document.getElementById("file-name").innerHTML = target.files[0].name;
}
You can check this example: https://jsfiddle.net/rjurado/hnf0zhy1/4/
In webkit you can try this out...
input[type="file"]::-webkit-file-upload-button{
/* style goes here */
}
first of all it's a container:
<div class="upload_file_container">
Select file!
<input type="file" name="photo" />
</div>
The second, it's a CSS style, if you want to real more customization, just keeping your eyes is open :)
.upload_file_container{
width:100px;
height:40px;
position:relative;
background(your img);
}
.upload_file_container input{
width:100px;
height:40px;
position:absolute;
left:0;
top:0;
cursor:pointer;
}
This example hasn't style for text inside the button, it depends on font-size, just correct the height and padding-top values for container
It's much better if you just use a <label>, hide the <input>, and customize the label.
HTML:
<input type="file" id="input">
<label for="input" id="label">Choose File</label>
CSS:
input#input{
display: none;
}
label#label{
/* Customize your label here */
}
Bootstrap example
<label className="btn btn-info btn-lg">
Upload
<input type="file" style="display: none" />
</label>
Here is a quick pure CSS workaround (works on chrome and has a FireFox fallback included), including the file name,a label and an custom upload button, does what it should - no need for JavaScript at all! 🎉
Note: ☝ anyways, I would not use it on a real world website - if browser compatibility is a thing to you (what it should be). So it's more kind of experimental, otherwise while time goes by, it could be that this isn't an issue today.

<div class="container">
<div class="fileUploadInput">
<label>✨ Upload File</label>
<input type="file" />
<button>+</button></div>
</div>
to show path of selected file you can try this
on html :
<div class="fileinputs">
<input type="file" class="file">
</div>
and in javascript :
var fakeFileUpload = document.createElement('div');
fakeFileUpload.className = 'fakefile';
var image = document.createElement('div');
image.className='fakebtn';
image.innerHTML = 'browse';
fakeFileUpload.appendChild(image);
fakeFileUpload.appendChild(document.createElement('input'));
var x = document.getElementsByTagName('input');
for (var i=0;i<x.length;i++) {
if (x[i].type != 'file') continue;
if (x[i].parentNode.className != 'fileinputs') continue;
x[i].className = 'file hidden';
var clone = fakeFileUpload.cloneNode(true);
x[i].parentNode.appendChild(clone);
x[i].relatedElement = clone.getElementsByTagName('input')[0];
x[i].onchange = x[i].onmouseout = function () {
this.relatedElement.value = this.value;
}
}
and style :
div.fileinputs {
position: relative;
height: 30px;
width: 370px;
}
input.file.hidden {
position: relative;
text-align: right;
-moz-opacity: 0;
filter: alpha(opacity: 0);
opacity: 0;
z-index: 2;
}
div.fakefile {
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
right: 0;
width: 370px;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
z-index: 1;
line-height: 90%;
}
div.fakefile input {
margin-bottom: 5px;
margin-left: 0;
border: none;
box-shadow: 0px 0px 2px 1px #ccc;
padding: 4px;
width: 241px;
height: 20px;
}
div.fakefile .fakebtn{
width: 150px;
background: #eb5a41;
z-index: 10;
font-family: roya-bold;
border: none;
padding: 5px 15px;
font-size: 18px;
text-align: center;
cursor: pointer;
-webkit-transition: all 0.4s ease;
-moz-transition: all 0.4s ease;
-o-transition: all 0.4s ease;
-ms-transition: all 0.4s ease;
transition: all 0.4s ease;
display: inline;
margin-left: 3px;
}
div.fileinputs input[type="file"]:hover + div .fakebtn{
background: #DA472E;
}
div.fileinputs input[type="file"] {
opacity: 0;
position: absolute;
top: -6px;
right: 0px;
z-index: 20;
width: 102px;
height: 40px;
cursor: pointer;
}
Here is one way which I like because it makes the input fill out the whole container. The trick is the "font-size: 100px", and it need to go with the "overflow: hidden" and the relative position.
<div id="upload-file-container" >
<input type="file" />
</div>
#upload-file-container {
width: 200px;
height: 50px;
position: relative;
border: dashed 1px black;
overflow: hidden;
}
#upload-file-container input[type="file"]
{
margin: 0;
opacity: 0;
font-size: 100px;
}
I went for this option which clarifies how to fully customize the browse button by including an handler of the uploaded file name, also customized.
It adds additional fields and client-side controls on them just to show how to include the browse in a "real" form, not just a standalone.
Here's the codepen: http://codepen.io/emiemi/pen/zxNXWR
JS:
//click on our custom btn triggers a click on the hidden actual file input
$("#btnup").click(function(){
$("#fileup").click();
});
//changes on the three fields (input, tit,and name) trigger a control which checks if the 3 fields are all filled and if file field is valid (an image is uploaded)
$('#fileup').change(function(){
var formDOMObj = document.upload;
//here we assign tu our text field #fileup the name of the selected file
var res=$('#fileup').val();
var arr = res.split("\\");
//if file is not valid we show the error icon and the red alert
if (formDOMObj.fileup.value.indexOf(".jpg") == -1 && formDOMObj.fileup.value.indexOf(".png") == -1 && formDOMObj.fileup.value.indexOf(".jpeg") == -1 && formDOMObj.fileup.value.indexOf(".bmp") == -1 && formDOMObj.fileup.value.indexOf(".JPG") == -1 && formDOMObj.fileup.value.indexOf(".PNG") == -1 && formDOMObj.fileup.value.indexOf(".JPEG") == -1 && formDOMObj.fileup.value.indexOf(".BMP") == -1){
$( ".imgupload" ).hide("slow");
$( ".imguploadok" ).hide("slow");
$( ".imguploadstop" ).show("slow");
$('#nomefile').css({"color":"red","font-weight":700});
$('#nomefile').html("The file "+arr.slice(-1)[0]+" is not an image!");
$( "#bottone" ).hide();
$( "#fakebtn" ).show();
}else{
//if file is valid we show the green alert
$( ".imgupload" ).hide("slow");
$( ".imguploadstop" ).hide("slow");
$( ".imguploadok" ).show("slow");
$('#nomefile').html(arr.slice(-1)[0]);
$('#nomefile').css({"color":"green","font-weight":700});
if (formDOMObj.nome.value!=""&&formDOMObj.tit.value!=""&&formDOMObj.fileup.value!=""){
//if all three fields are valid the fake input btn is hidden and the actual one i s finally hown
$( "#fakebtn" ).hide();
$( "#bottone" ).show();
}
}
});
$('#nome').change(function(){
//same as file change but on name field
var formDOMObj = document.upload;
if (formDOMObj.nome.value!=""&&formDOMObj.tit.value!=""&&formDOMObj.fileup.value!=""){
$( "#fakebtn" ).hide();
$( "#bottone" ).show();
}else{
$( "#bottone" ).hide();
$( "#fakebtn" ).show();
}
});
$('#tit').change(function(){
//same as file change but on tit field
var formDOMObj = document.upload;
if (formDOMObj.nome.value!=""&&formDOMObj.tit.value!=""&&formDOMObj.fileup.value!=""){
$( "#fakebtn" ).hide();
$( "#bottone" ).show();
}else{
$( "#bottone" ).hide();
$( "#fakebtn" ).show();
}
});

You can style them, but you can't remove the elements that are already there. If you're creative, you can work with that and do something like this:
input[type=file] {
-webkit-appearance: none;
-moz-appearance: none;
appearance: none;
background: #EEE;
background: linear-gradient(to top, #FFF, #DDD);
border: thin solid rgba(0,0,0, .5);
border-radius: .25em;
box-shadow: inset .25em .25em .25em rgba(255,255,255, .5), inset -.1em -.1em .1em rgba(0,0,0, 0.1);
cursor: text;
padding: .25em;
}

I suggest you play around with this code, remove lines, add your own, do whatever until you get something that looks how you like!
Just style a normal button however you want, using your favorite CSS.
Then call a simple JS function to create and link a hidden input element to your styled button. Don't add browser-specific CSS to do the hiding part.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<style>
button {
width : 160px;
height : 30px;
font-size : 13px;
border : none;
text-align : center;
background-color : #444;
color : #6f0;
}
button:active {
background-color : #779;
}
</style>
<button id="upload">Styled upload button!</button>
<script>
function Upload_On_Click(id, handler) {
var hidden_input = null;
document.getElementById(id).onclick = function() {hidden_input.click();}
function setup_hidden_input() {
hidden_input && hidden_input.parentNode.removeChild(hidden_input);
hidden_input = document.createElement("input");
hidden_input.setAttribute("type", "file");
hidden_input.style.visibility = "hidden";
document.querySelector("body").appendChild(hidden_input);
hidden_input.onchange = function() {
handler(hidden_input.files[0]);
setup_hidden_input();
};
}
setup_hidden_input();
}
Upload_On_Click("upload", function(file) {
console.log("GOT FILE: " + file.name);
});
</script>
Notice how the above code re-links it after every time the user chooses a file. This is important because "onchange" is only called if the user changes the filename. But you probably want to get the file every time the user provides it.
For more details, research DropZone and gmail uploads.
Here is one way I recently discovered, with a bit of jQuery
HTML Code:
<form action="">
<input type="file" name="file_upload" style="display:none" id="myFile">
<a onclick="fileUpload()"> Upload a file </a>
</form>
For the javascript/jQuery part :
<script>
function fileUpload() {
$("#myFile").click();
}
</script>
In this example, I have put an "anchor" tag to trigger the file upload. You can replace with anything you want, just remember to put the "onclick" attribute with the proper function.
Hope this helps!
P.S. : Do not forget to include jQuery from CDN or any other source
I tried your script but it isn't working right. I have edited my code below to show exactly what I am working with. Thank you so much for being helpful.

Hi,
I am very new to JQuery.
I am trying to get a div to fade in after a click event and then hide after click anywhere. I have three divs set up to do this with css set as display:none. The problem is that the script does not work in IE8 and only works in ff/safari if I double click or triple click the menubar links below.
I am using the following code to show/hide these divs on mouse click:

Perhaps you need to check jQuery UI accordion which can be what you really want.
EDIT: following 1st comment.
Use this simple code to hide/show menu (or any div)
<script type="text/javascript">
function toggle_visibility(id) {
var e = document.getElementById(id);
if(e.style.display == 'block')
e.style.display = 'none';
else
e.style.display = 'block';
}
</script>
Click here to toggle visibility of element #foo
<div id="foo" style="display:block">This is foo</div>
