Looks like this is a different bug. You want to trigger the filepicker
or focus the "browse…" button with this.

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: firefox

  Firefox 3 (3.0~b4+nobinonly-0ubuntu1) immediately opens a "file upload" dialog when I click on the file name field. Ff should only open this dialog if click on [Browse...]. Even after I close the dialog window I can neither input a file name directly into the field nor can I remove the file from the input field.
  It should be as easy editable as in firefox 2.

  I use Hardy amd64.
