Upload a photo using UIWebView

Question

Suppose I have a web page (say filebrowse.html) in a remote server, having a browse file button, I want to access this page via a UIWebView and upload photo fro

Answer 1

On iOS, there is no way to "browse the filesystem" so you can't use a form in UIWebView to attach photos for upload. The answer is rather convoluted but here goes:

You're going to have to -

1. UIImagePickerController to get a picture from the photos album.
2. Determine the POST headers for the submit form
3. Encode the image as NSData
4. Write a POST request with NSURLConnection with the NSData object getting inserted in the proper header

I can't really give you the code for all of this because it needs to be broken down into all of those steps.
