Question

Uploading Photos from Mobile Devices using CF

We have ported several of our top website features to a new mobile platform and all is working great.

However, one thing I don't know how to do is to access the file system on a mobile device so we can allow our visitors to upload photos using CF.

The normal form tag <input type="File" name="MYIMAGE" size="50" maxlength="100" accept="image/jpeg"> does not work on any mobile devices I tested.

Any assistance would be appreciated. thanks -

    This isn't really a CF question, it's more a question about what sort of mark-up mobile devices support.  CFML runs on the CF server, not on the client device.   You're probably better off asking this sort of thing on a mobile device forum.

    I was rather surprised that my iPhone (or the Safari implementation on it) did not know what to do with a simple <input type="file">.
