You can use accept atribute of <form> element. I'm not sure why it's a
form atribute, if it was part <input type="file"> would be better. But I
don't know of any browser respecting this.
accept = content-type-list [CI]
This attribute specifies a comma-separated list of content types
that a server processing this form will handle correctly. User agents
may use this information to filter out non-conforming files when
prompting a user to select files to be sent to the server (cf. the INPUT
element when type="file").
