title: In JavaScript can I make a "click" event fire programmatically for a file input element?
body: <p>I'd like to make a click event fire on an <code>&lt;input type="file"&gt;</code> tag programmatically.</p>
  
  <p>Just calling click() doesn't seem to do anything or at least it doesn't pop up a file selection dialog.</p>
  
  <p>I've been experimenting with capturing events using listeners and redirecting the event, but I haven't been able to get that to actually perform the event like someone clicked on it.</p>
