Want to upload a file with one click

I am wanting to simplify a page that I'm writing... the guts behind the
page is PHP and wondering if it's possible to upload a photo in one
click. How would I approach having the browsed file detected once it's
populated into the form field and have it auto uploaded? Can this be
done?

Sincerely,

Julia

Due to the security implications involved with file upload controls,
most modern browsers do not allow scripting actions to be performed on
them or with them.

Anyway, why is it so much more complicated to have the user click
"submit" once they've chosen a file?

I work for an animal hospital trying to use PHP to store an animal's dental x-rays to a file server. I can browse for the xray on the local desktop computer then click "Upload Image". This works fine. The doctors want fewer steps to follow. So, it was asked if I can configure the browser to load/submit the image 'xray.tif' each time they click "Upload Image" instead of the doctor/animal technician having to look for for dental x-ray...
