JQuery MultiFile file select button

I am using jQuery MultiFile plugin. Download button below:

Choose file button

Is it possible to change the text Select file to something else? Web surfing can't help me.

I just want to “Select Files” there.

Please just say * Yes (+ and how) or * No.

Thank!

Yes, I found the best workaround! This is not a hack - we just need two buttons: the original and the "fake".

  <input type="button" value="Choose Files">
  <input type="file">

The fake is displayed to the user and has

  z-index:1

The original is located above it,

  z-index:2, opacity: 0; position: relative;

and has callbacks:

  :onmousedown=>"buttonPush('depressed')", :onmouseup=>"buttonPush('normal')"

  function buttonPush(buttonStatus) {
    if (buttonStatus == "depressed")
      document.getElementById("fake_btn").style.borderStyle = "inset";
    else
      document.getElementById("fake_btn").style.borderStyle = "outset";
  }
