I've never developed for mobile devices but found a need to tinker with it a tiny bit. I made a small form for a friend of mine so she could easily upload photos from her cell to my server. So I made a simple HTML upload form. It works perfectly in my browser (on a PC) but when she views the form on her cell, the 'browse' button doesn't work; it's dimmed. I use a cell for texting. I checked the site on my cell. Same issue. I know nothing about development for mobile users so I ask: Am I missing something? Is there a way to do this that I'm not aware of? Here is the code I'm using:

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//WAPFORUM//DTD XHTML Mobile 1.0//EN" "http://www.wapforum.org/DTD/xhtml-mobile10.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">
<head>
</head>

<table width="500" border="0" align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#CCCCCC">
<tr>
<form action="upload_rename_ac.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" name="form1" id="form1">
<td>
<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<tr>
<td><strong>Single File Upload </strong></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Select file
<input name="ufile" type="file" id="ufile" size="50" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="center"><input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Upload" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</form>
</tr>
</table>

</html>

As far as I was aware standard html like that worked fine on cells...so it could be dependant on what browser she is using?

What sort of phone does she have? She could probably download opera mini if it supported java and that uploads fine to my knowledge?

Do you know what cell phone she was using?

She has an iPhone using Safari. I use a Samsung (browser unknown; it's from StraightTalk). On both of our cells, the page and the submit button works but the upload button doesn't. It works perfect on my PC though.

Do you know what cell phone she was using?
