Safari 14.0.1 File Selection button not working

I have a standard web form which has a file selector form field. This has worked for well over 10 years as it's the standard UI presented by Safari. Just noticed today after Safari upgraded to 14.0.1 (on the latest Mojave) that the button is dead: clicking does nothing. This same form continues to work in Chrome. Anyone else see this and have a workaround?

Mac mini 2018 or later

Safari 14.0.3 which fixes this issue, is now available via the Software Update System Preferences pane.

No sign of any action from Apple about this. bazaarsoft's comment suggests they may not fix it.


If nothing has happened by the beginning of next week I shall probably re-install Mojave OS. I hope that will get me back to an earlier version of Safari. It's surprisingly easy to do this if you have a good enough internet connection. See https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204904 Follow instructions for Intel processor. That page refers to re-installing Big Sur, but note that if you start up the computer holding ⌘-R to enter MacOS Recovery it will offer to re-install the version of MacOS you are currently using, i.e. Mojave
