I just needed tinybrowser to upload images and not add them to any editors (not even plain text).
I did this to use a Forms API button:

function tw_node_form($form_state) {
  //Upload images
  if(module_exists('tinybrowser')){
   drupal_add_js(drupal_get_path('module', 'tinybrowser') .'/tinybrowser/tb_standalone.js.php');
   $form['uploadsubmit'] = array(
        '#type' => 'submit',
        '#value' => t('Upload Images'),
        '#attributes' => array("onclick" => 'tinyBrowserPopUp("image","edit-preview"); return(false);'),
      );
      
      $form['preview'] = array(
        '#type' => 'textarea',
        '#rows' => 1,
        '#disabled' => TRUE,
      );
  }
}

The textarea is needed to fool the tinyBrowserPopUp function, it is not used.
Maybe the developer can add another function in a future release that does not need to check for a textarea.

Thanks for a very handy module.

Yes, what you did is the best for that purpose. Currently TinyBrowser opens up a new window(or tab) and display the selected file/image/media when the specified form field ID is not textarea (or input type=text with the next release). The reason I made it this way was to make it behave as same as IMCE. I never thought the use case like you did. I will think this as a possible feature to investigate.

Thanks,
