javascript - Add a Profile Picture in form in HTML and CSS

Question

I am creating a form in which I need a Profile picture of the user and I want that the picture is in a circle or a ectangular form. By default the area of image should be black or a dummy picture. When the user clicks on the area then he/she is allowed to select an image, just like the profile picture upload in Facebook or Twitter.

Answer 1

What you can do is to hide the input and just act as if it was clicked when the profile image is clicked:

$("#profileImage").click(function(e) {
    $("#imageUpload").click();
});

#imageUpload
{
    display: none;
}

#profileImage
{
    cursor: pointer;
}

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<image id="profileImage" src="http://lorempixel.com/100/100" />
<input id="imageUpload" type="file" 
       name="profile_photo" placeholder="Photo" required="" capture>
