File Upload Button function is different from 64-bit to 32-bit?

asked on August 15, 2014

I have a form that includes CSS on it.  This causes the "Choose Files" button for the File Upload to be set all the way to the right, which is where we want it.

In IE9.0.8112 64-bit, the active button is in the blank area (denoted by the red box).  When we click here, the file upload works correctly.  When we click on the "Choose Files" button, it does not show the uploaded file.

 

In IE9.0.8112 32-bit, the active button is where the "Choose Files" button is.  When we click here, the file upload works correctly.

 

I've tried this in Chrome and IE11 and they both work fine.  The customer doesn't have an easy upgrade path to IE11 (XP machines).  

 

I'm assuming that this behavior is due to the CSS.  Has anyone else run into this type of behavior?  Thanks!

We recommend our clients not use IE at all for any form. Are you absolutely certain they cannot just use firefox or chrome? I do not believe IE9 properly supports HTML5 and that is why you are having difficulties. Newer versions should be better, but IE has it's own set of rules sometimes.

 

I would recommend trying to direct target IE browsers in your CSS so it has it's own custom CSS that isn't necessary for other browsers to interpret.
