How would I create a "attachment button" using Apex Code?

I would like to attach a document to an Calendar event. In order to do, I am assuming I have to create a new button.  What should I select for th content source? "Onclick javascript" or "visual page". Which is easier to accomplish? In addition I am not sure what the javascript would be in order to generate this button. Please help.

You can do this in 2 ways using HTML button or Apex:commadbutton here you need to bind two property fileName and FileContent wth VF page.

<apex:inputFile value="{!test}" filename="{!fileName}" />

<apex:commandButton action="{!Uploadfile}" value="Upload File" id="theButton"  />

 

in controller you need to Keep these two properties : 

test{get;set;}

fileName{get;set;}

in page:

 

<apex:inputFile value="{!photo}"> </apex:inputFile>
                              <apex:commandButton value="Upload photo" action="{!uploadphoto}" />

 

controller:

 Attachment objA=new Attachment();
            objA.body = photo;
            objA.name = 'testname';
            objA.parentid= event.id;
        
            insert objA;
