have you actually tested it all the way through uploading a file?

i tried to do the same thing awhile ago and found that ie wouldn't upload a
file if the click event was fired programmatically to open the browse
dialog, as opposed to the user clicking on the file input's "browse..."
button.  i'm guessing this is some sort of security thing.

the main problem area, of course, being borders.
