[jQuery] input file and val()

[jQuery] input file and val()


Hi there,
I tried to "reset" a file input element by using "val()".
<html>
    <head>
        <title>FooBar</title>
    </head>
    <script src="jquery.js"></script>
    <script>
        $(document).ready(function() {
            $("#resetMe").click(function () {
                $("#input1").val('');
            });
        });
    </script>
    <body>
    <form name="foo">
        <input id="input1" type="file" name="foobar">
        


        <input id="resetMe" type="button" value="ResetMe!">
    </form>
    </body>
</html>
This works fine for FF, but IE doesn´t (re)set the value.
Any hints?
TIA
