  document.getElementById("file").click(); 
}
</script>

<form name="novsh" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
    <input type="file" name="file" style="display:none" id="file" />

It might be FF is not resolving the name of control as given.

Ok, first of all put an alert just before click line and see if document.getElementById("file") is being shown as Object or not.

If so, debug it and check that whether 'document.getElementById("file")' has the event click in it.

P.S.: perform all these in FF as thats where the issue is.
If you are able to resolve after this ok, or else tell us what you find.
