Uploading from a browser

[dadoc04]

Hey PPCG fam,

im having an issue using sites like tinypic to upload an image. When I to a site and click browse so that I can select the file to upload, I cant get to my /storage card/my documents/my pictures folder.

Is there a cab or regedit to get the file browser to be able to go to all subfolders.

thanks in advance.

Works for me. Try adding an empty file called ignore_my_docs in the root of my SD card. Adding that file will allow programs to search the entire card, and not just the My Documents folder. This was also the old work around when you did not have a "My Documents" folder on your SD Card. It would allow apps to search the card and display other folders / files.

CovKid,

thanks for the suggestion, that didnt work tho. Problem is, its not seeing anything thats in the subfolders of the my documents thats on my storage card. It does however see the files inside of /storage/my documents


visible = storage card/my documents

not visible = storage card/ my documents/my pictures

I was able to drill down on Tinypic.com into Storage Card/My Documents/My Pictures. I could even drill down three more levels to my lowest level folder in one directory. Strange but true sorry! I'm using Opera 9.7 build 35541...came with Juicy R5.
