Something like this should work for triggering the upload for plupload

$('.fileuploader').plupload('start');

but if you are talking about the file browse dialog, that cant be triggered manually as it is OS dependent, but there is a HTML5solution here

I tried that solution but didn't work. The answer posted at 2012. it look like old.

because you are trying to manually trigger that's why it is not possible, only Firefox allows simulating click on <input type=file /> In Flash/Silverlight/Html4 there is no any possibility to open file dialog programmatically.
