You have described a particular behaviour, whether it is a problem or
not depends on your point of view. My version of Firefox on OS X
behaves the same as yours - I can't comment on whether it's a problem
without knowing more about why I should think so.

For example:

<input type="file" onclick="alert(this.value);">

May work better if the browse dialog comes up first.

any work around?

You mean, can you force the click event to be triggered before the
browse dialog is activated rather than after? No, not that I know of
(OK, the trivial response is to modify the browser source code, but
that is not useful advice for most people).

thanks,

i have input file on div with is hidding and showing when user cilck some
element. It's something like this

<img onclick="show('divWithInput'); delyHide =
setTimeout(hide(''divWithInput''), 1000);" >

and in input
<input type="file" onclick="clearTimeout(delyHide);">

so, ther's is no way to get this working in ff on mac. let it be, i'll
change onclick with onmouseover it wont be exactly what i need, but will be
working :) i hope

BTW
shouldn't it works like this:
<input type="file" onclick="clearTimeout(delyHide);"
onchange="alert(this.value);">

I don't unterdstand somebody has to fire by JS a file input.

in fire fox on windows
function is executing just after click, but on mac it seems to be execut
after file browse window is closed (in safari it works ok).

Did you try "onchange".

Isn't it too late ? (1 second is not a very long delay)

this here works :

<input type="file" onmousedown="clearTimeout(delyHide);">
