Can I specify the text of the "Browse..." button generated by this control
(the html <input type="form"...> control)?  It needs to be Japanese but I
don't know how to tell the user agent that renders this control to display
the "Browse..." text in Japanese.

You can't, for obvious security reason.  The HTML FileUpload control is
under the strict control of the user and cannot be changed in any way from
either the server side or the client side with javascript or vbscript.

So will IE in Japan "know" how to display the text on the "Browse..." button
in Japanese automatically?

I don't know about the Japan version of Windows but a japanese who have
bought the japan version of Windows and use it should be able to read what's
displayed on his/her screen for stuff like this.

If Microsoft have translated the IE menus and other things but have excluded
the Browse button from the translation, then I don't think you can do
something about it.

Yes, the HTML controls should all appear localized on their respective
language versions of Windows.
