iOS Question File explorer / uploader

[Yvon Steinthal]

Hello,

I am trying to find a way for my app users to be able to upload files from their tablets. Is there a way to have a pop up menu (we usually get from safari or webview when we click on a type upload button) ?

I can send the image on my server using PostBytes afterwards with no problem. So my issue here is getting to call the ipad's "browser" so the user can select a file.

Thanks.

Where are the files stored?

A very good question, i've been trying to answer that for the past 24hrs...
I can't seem to find a way to "download" pdfs from emails on my ipad, there are temporary files that you transfer from app to app but that's all you can do it seems.

My goal was for someone to be able to upload jpg, pdfs to my server via the app, but it seems everything is set up for jpgs, and pictures but not for documents...

I am not sure where to go from there...
