The "Take Photo" action is displayed whenever image types are accepted by the file input, and is independent of the "capture" attribute. The spec doesn't say that we should exclude such an option if "capture" is not specified.

Can you elaborate on why you want to disable this action?

sir,
The file input is not of type picture, but "Photo" still shows up, then
Clicking "take a photo" on an html page will crash the app, even if the app doesn't have permission to open the camera.
My project has webview in an APP, happens as described earlier.

So I think there has to be a feature to disable it off

Thanks for the explanation.

We currently show "Photo" options unless the input explicitly excludes images via the "accept" attribute. This means that a plain <input type=file> will always show the "Take Photo" item.

I think we should consider removing the menu item in WebKit if the app doesn't have the necessary permissions. Retitling the bug to reflect the issue more clearly. Please let me know if I have misinterpreted something.
