File input 'accept' attribute
Implementing a file upload under html is fairly simple, but I just noticed that there is an 'accept' attribute that can be added to the <input type="file" ...>
tag.
Is this attribute useful as a way of limiting file uploads to images, etc? What is the best way to use it?
Alternatively, is there a way to limit file types, preferably in the file dialog, for an html file input tag?
The accept
attribute is incredibly useful. It is a hint to browsers to only show files that are allowed for the current input
. While it can typically be overridden by users, it helps narrow down the results for users by default, so they can get exactly what they're looking for without having to sift through a hundred different file types.
Usage
Note: These examples were written based on the current specification and may not actually work in all (or any) browsers. The specification may also change in the future, which could break these examples.
h1 { font-size: 1em; margin:1em 0; }
h1 ~ h1 { border-top: 1px solid #ccc; padding-top: 1em; }
<h1>Match all image files (image/*)</h1>
<p><label>image/* <input type="file" accept="image/*"></label></p>
<h1>Match all video files (video/*)</h1>
<p><label>video/* <input type="file" accept="video/*"></label></p>
<h1>Match all audio files (audio/*)</h1>
<p><label>audio/* <input type="file" accept="audio/*"></label></p>
<h1>Match all image files (image/*) and files with the extension ".someext"</h1>
<p><label>.someext,image/* <input type="file" accept=".someext,image/*"></label></p>
<h1>Match all image files (image/*) and video files (video/*)</h1>
<p><label>image/*,video/* <input type="file" accept="image/*,video/*"></label></p>
Yes, it is extremely useful in browsers that support it, but the "limiting" is as a convenience to users (so they are not overwhelmed with irrelevant files) rather than as a way to prevent them from uploading things you don't want them uploading.

Accept attribute was introduced in the RFC 1867, intending to enable file-type filtering based on MIME type for the file-select control. But as of 2008, most, if not all, browsers make no use of this attribute. Using client-side scripting, you can make a sort of extension based validation, for submit data of correct type (extension).
Other solutions for advanced file uploading require Flash movies like SWFUpload or Java Applets like JUpload.
