Magento – Custom button in Admin Form

I need to add a button in my custom module admin form , which calls an action 'upload'

How can I achieve it ?

When defining a form element you have the option of specifying after_element_html. what you put there will be shown after the element itself. Here is an example:

$fieldset->addField('some_field', 'text', array(
    'label' => Mage::helper('core')->__('Some label'),
    'name'  => 'some_name',
    'after_element_html' => '<button type="button" onclick="alert(\'Stop clicking me!!\')">Do not click</button>' 
));

I think you can start from here. you can use the onclick on the button to do an ajax call (or something like that) and upload your image.

I found the solution.
To add a country multi select dropdown in your form you need to add below code in your Block/Adminhtml/ModuleName/Edit/Tab/Form.php file.

$countryList = Mage::getModel('directory/country')->getResourceCollection()->loadByStore()->toOptionArray(true);
$fieldset->addField('countries', 'multiselect', array(
            'name'      => 'countries[]',
            'label'     => Mage::helper('zones')->__('Countries'),
            'title'     => Mage::helper('zones')->__('Countries'),
            'required'  => true,
            'values'    => $countryList,
        ));

$fieldset->addField('<Data base Field name>', 'image', array(
        'label' => Mage::helper('<Module Name>')->__('Logo'),
        'name' => '<your Data base Field name>',
        'note' => '(*.jpg, *.png, *.gif)'
