In my current project located in index.html, I have integrated a flip card as a profile photo feature. Additionally, I have included a file uploader button on the page. However, I am struggling to connect the functionality of the file uploader button to automatically display the selected image on the flip card once uploaded. The CSS styling has been applied to the flip card, but there is no corresponding CSS for the file uploader button.
Here are the references I used for the flip card and the file uploader button:
Website for the flip card: https://www.w3schools.com/howto/tryit.asp?filename=tryhow_css_flip_card
Website for the file uploader button: https://www.w3schools.com/howto/tryit.asp?filename=tryhow_html_file_upload_button.
