If you look at it in different browsers, you'll see that many of them render the element completely differently. The field doesn't respond to most CSS properties including width values, so you're kind of stuck with the way the browser wants to do it.</p> <p><a href="http://www.456bereastreet.com/lab/styling-form-controls-revisited/file-select/" rel="nofollow">http://www.456bereastreet.com/lab/styling-form-controls-revisited/file-select/</a></p> <p>You can search and find a few "tricks" like replacing the field with images, javascript, etc. but I can't vouch for any of them and they may not work in all of the browsers. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/file-upload-field-width#post-34352 Sat, 03 Sep 2011 12:27:56 +0000 umarglobal 34352@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>This post is really in relation to this topic<br /> <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/setting-width-of-file-upload-field" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/setting-width-of-file-upload-field</a></p> <p>The size of the file upload field is hard coded which is fine but isn't there some way where we can set "Small", "Medium" &amp; "Large" Options in the back end when editing the form field in the form editor. Similar to all your other fields which then changes the hard coded value based on your selection </p>
