Can you upload using mobile / cell phone?

[flipperbox]

Got a board running at www.flipperbox.com

Cant seem to upload using my Iphone.  Is this the case with all mobiles? Is it all Iphones or am I just doing something wrong?

I know it won't do bulk upload because it needs flash, but it wont let me do it on the single upload either?

Is there something I can change in the settings that I have not seen?   Or is there a plugin that I have not been able to find?  Or is it just not meant to be?

What exactly happens when you try to upload with the HTML upload form? It should work with all HTML browsers, but I haven't tested that yet. Maybe some people with iPhones and other mobile devices can share their experiences.

Hi, thanks for your reply.

When on the upload screen the 'choose...' button isn't available.

On my phone I have safari as standard and the opera mini app.  Its the same prob in both browsers.

Wonder if anyone else has these issues....
I'll try get someone to test it on blackberry / Android later

is it a flash button? as i just tested it out, and i see a green arrow, which shows when there is a flash file displayed. i clicked the green arrow, then the Browse button showed up

Didnt have any photos to check it through, only shows root of tablet

Archos 80 G9 tablet (android honycomb)

Just tested successfully on Android (Gingerbread) with stock browser and Opera Mobile.

@Visitor: there's a flash uploader and a single HTTP upload form. We're talking about the single uploader here.

Yep its a flash button,

tried with nokia lumia 800 windows phone, didnt want to browse

tried again with Archos, single file.. it asked if i want to use camera,files,gallery selected one from gallery and it uploaded just fine

Perhaps its time to get a new phone...
I'll try messing with the phone settings perhaps, see if I can make it through that.

Off the top of your head, do you think there is anything in the settings that could be stopping me?  I've looked, but nothing springs to mind really

I don't know. Never had an iPhone nor probably will have one. Maybe some other iPhone users can confirm that behavior, but I doubt that it's impossible to use the HTTP file upload function.

try installing another apps browser, sometimes the default has lots of restrictions
