If you’re using the standard HTML form element (input type=“file”) you don’t have the same options. The imageshack uploader is a quite heavily scripted to perform validation and so on.

Imageshack use a flash uploader which gives them the ability to check the file type using JavaScript, there are quite a few different JavaScript powered file uploaders but it would be up to you which one you want to use.
