<input type='file'> is unbelievable for its inability to be styled. IE is even more bizarre in that it displays the full path of the file chosen in a text field with a blinking cursor like you can type when active but ignores keyboard entry - except the backspace or delete keys that removes the file if there is one selected. IE11 changed file selection from double-click on mystery text field to single click on mystery text field. Browse always worked however.
