How to handle onchange event on input type=file in jQuery?

Or could be:

$('input[type=file]').change(function () {
    alert("hola");
});

To be specific: $('input[type=file]#fileUpload1').change(...

It should work fine, are you wrapping the code in a $(document).ready() call? If not use that or use live i.e.

$('#fileupload1').live('change', function(){ 
    alert("hola");
});

Here is a jsFiddle of this working against jQuery 1.4.4

Demo : http://jsfiddle.net/NbGBj/

$("document").ready(function(){

    $("#upload").change(function() {
        alert('changed!');
    });
});
