Hi,

I have used the code in this tutorial (http://docs.appery.io/tutorials/uploa...) in my app and everything works fine in the browser when however I run on my Samsung Galaxy (with Firefox installed) the file selector button will not open the FF file selector it chooses either the gallery or es explorer and therefore nothing works! Is there a way of invoking FF?

Thx

By default only images are accepted by file selector. If you want to change acceptable file types you should change HTML code created on the 7th step Building the Upload page:
instead of
code<input type ="file" name ="fileselect" id="fileselect"><&#47;input>/code
you should write:
code<input type ="file" name ="fileselect" id="fileselect" accept="&#47;"><&#47;input>/code

In such case file selector will show you all possible application to select file on your device.

I am only needing to upload image files, when I select a file on my desktop browser, the image displays fine in the preview as below;

When I try the same however on the mobile app I get no such preview and consequently there is nothing to upload, the app running in the desktop browser however works fine.

If I share the app is it possible somebody could take a look and see where the issue is so I can determine a route to move forward? Or alternatively see if the tutorial app gives the same results on another Android device
