file input in IE 7 is allowing to type into it

Question

I am having problem with <input type="file"/> in IE 7, it is allowing me to type into it. This problem is not present in FF 3.6 and IE 8.0

Is this known problem?

And every body handles it with writing java script event to eat-out the key presses as suggested here?

Answer 1

I have used unselectable=on property at that time. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms537840%28v=vs.85%29.aspx

Got this link somewhere about testing on multiple IE in Windows7, hope to be useful for anybody having this kind of problems.
