Uploadify inside Jquery UI Dialog => Chrome & Opera bugs
I recently had the same problem, after looking up a bit at the code i have noticed the following at line 193:
jQuery('#' + swfuploadify.movieName).css({position: 'absolute', 'z-index': 1, 'left' : '0px'});
Simply changing the z-index to 9999 worked for me
jQuery('#' + swfuploadify.movieName).css({position: 'absolute', 'z-index': 9999, 'left' : '0px'});
If you don't want to change core codes just add the following css rule to your page.
.swfupload { z-index: 100000 !important;}
I have tried all the solutions but to no avail.
There are 3 instances of uploadify in the page.
As shown in the image there is a dialog box or overlay div over the main page. When I click over the SELECT FILES it does not display the browse dialog box
