# cursor pointer select file button not showing

 * Hi,
 * I found out there was something weird going on with the cursors of the select
   file and upload button. The Upload button always had the pointer (hand) cursor,
   even when there was no file selected. I managed to change this with custom CSS.
   However, the select file button never shows the pointer cursor but always the
   arrow typed one. Is it possible to change this? Or should this work fine by default
   and is there an problem somewhere else that mess-up the cursors?
 * Thanks! BTW: very nice plugin, simple and does the job!

 * I made a clean instance on this page: [file upload](http://www.oceangrazer.com/intranet/graphics/).
   Here you can see how it looks like.

 * what happens if you put the following css:
 *     ```
       input#upfile_1 {
           cursor: pointer;
       }
       ```
