    Default 'Browse For File' Button??

    I've searched everywhere online, I've tried dozens of keywords in these forums,
    I've read all the file manipulation documenation, and I've found dozens of
    posts where people have already done this - but no one explains how to do it!

    Please, someone tell me how to create a 'Browse for File' button on a webpage,
    that when clicked, displays the user's files, where they then select a file and
    click 'ok', and that filename then appears in a text box (or starts uploading).

    This is such a common technique and its probably got a simple answer because
    I've exhausted all the not-simple places-with-answers.... what am I missing?
    Thanks

    see below, note the enctype on the form tag.

    <form action="someActionPage.cfm" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
    <input type="file" name="fileToUpload">
    </form>
