Why does 'no file selected' validation always show on my Update page uploads field?

Why does 'no file selected' validation always show on my Update page uploads field?

It looks like an issue with the css in the <head> section, as I've had problems creating template editable regions for that area.

I haven't found the css, any text that says 'no file selected' in the code, or a validation server behavior for those fields.

Page and screen shot attached.

You don't seem to have required validation on any of the fields, so I'm not sure why it would say that. Where does it say it? Please send a url and steps to reproduce and I'll see if I can see what is going on that way.

Did this help? Tips are appreciated...

That is the way the browser renders file upload fields. Until you select a file, it says no file selected.

You can display the current file value above and put a label on that field to "replace file:" to make it clear that there is no replacement file selected not necessarily no file selected previously.
