How to customize the input type file button and text box

Question

I need to customize the file upload button from the below form.

Now my fileupload button looks like fileupload image.I need to customize it like customize-file upload image

<form id="myform" action="" enctype="multipart/form-data">

    <input id="tele" type="file" name="filename" />
    <br/>
    <input class="btn" type="submit" value="Upload" />
</form>

Solution 1

After watching your image, i think u want input type as a textbox and not button.Can u try with keeping input type file as hidden and have textbox like this

 <input id="txt" type = "text" value = "Choose File" 
       onclick ="javascript:document.getElementById('file').click();">
      <input id = "file" type="file" style='visibility: hidden;' name="img" onchange="ChangeText(this, 'txt');"/>



function ChangeText(oFileInput, sTargetID) {

    document.getElementById(sTargetID).value = oFileInput.value;
}

You can easily apply css to this textbox

Solution 2

Give the styles you want of course, but some examples of how to do this are provided below.

input[type="file"] {
       border: 4px solid red;
       border-radius: 40px;
}

or try

#tele {
     border: 4px solid red;
     border-radius: 50px;
 }

if for some reason neither of those works, you might need to be more specific like so

#myform #tele {
     border: 3px solid blue;
 }
