    Found an alternative.

    Just position the input type="file" over the custom button by absolute positioning it and use jQuery fadeTo('fast',0) to hide it.

    Now if we click over the custom button file browser window appears.

    Its working in all desktop browsers but not in iPhone & iPad as they don’t allow to upload any file.
