Create filter on html file chooser dialog

html, openfiledialog

Solution

The HTML 5 `accept` attribute on `file` input elements is for this purpose. E.g.:

<input type="file" accept=".doc,.docx,.xml,application/msword,application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document">

Problem

Is there a way to show only .xxx files in the default file chooser dialog. xxx may be not-known file types, such as abc, efg etc. I'm using html5 so it may have new support for this type of things. Thanks!
