Hi,
Does anyone know how to upload files using a PDA with Blazer 4.0 as the web browser?

Any suggestions?

CES-

I looked up Blazer on palm's website and they advertise "Extensive support for web standards" and then give a whole list of what they claim to support. Based on that I would say that any average upload script would work just fine.

However I have never use a palm pilot so I dont know how the filesystem works. For a quick test go to a webmail site and try and upload an attachment. If it works then you should have no problem with a normal file upload script.

Hi,
Thanks for the response.

The problem is that the browse button is not being displayed?

Anyone have any ideas?

If the browse button is not being displayed then I would surmise that the browsers implementation is not as complete as they advertise.

This could be due to the lack of ordinary file system on the Palm OS (remember I have not used one of these since m100....).

Take a look around in the browser and palm system settings menus and make sure that there is nothing disabling this feature. Then you might look into a different browser.

Good luck!

A last note-

I didnt think of this until just after I hit the submit button but you might try posting in the palm os forum: forum601
