Unable to Upload a file in IE( works fine in Chrome)

Hi,
We are not able to do upload in our upload pop-up in which multiple files can be uploaded at a time. There are other upload screens where only one file can be uploaded at a time and the solutions available that converting file type to text works. But the same is not working in other screen where multiple uploads is possible.
The outer HTML is : <INPUT class=file onchange="setFileNameFromPath(this.value, document.forms[0].filename);" type=file name=fileIndex1>
The code which does not work is :
_setFile(_file("fileIndex1"), "D://test.txt");
_call(_file("fileIndex1").outerHTML=_file("fileIndex1").outerHTML.replace(/type=file/, "type=text"));
_setValue(_textbox("fileIndex1"),"D://test.txt");
_setFile(_file("fileIndex2"), "D://test.txt");
_call(_file("fileIndex2").outerHTML=_file("fileIndex2").outerHTML.replace(/type=file/, "type=text"));
_setValue(_textbox("fileIndex2"),"D://test.txt");

Is there any workaround for the above...
I just noticed that the above issue works fine in other browsers like chrome, Problem is only in IE 8
Is it something related to Onchange event in IE..
Here is the related post to that

I also tried using _focus(_file("file")); but it did not work..
This worked for me in IE10. Sahi OS Version: V4.3
_call(_file("file").outerHTML = _file("file").outerHTML.replace("file", "text"));
_setValue(_textbox("file"),$uploadingfile);
Its nor working for us and its becoming a blocker for entire automation as now the same feature is come in other modules where this is the first step to proceed further.
Can we have a webex session for this?
Please help us.
