What @PatrickEvans said, do something like `function handleFileSelect() {}` — The Thirsty Ape, Mar 09 '14 at 20:14

It tells you upfront exactly what the error is. You did not define the handleFileSelect callback function.

Define the function for God's sake.

That's how you define a function:

function handleFileSelect()
{
    //code
}

Just put this snippet before you add the listener and it'll throw no error.
