Posting files to Wigle and websurfing

beakmyn · 10-14-2006

This seems to be an odd issue but I can't seem to use my PDA (Dell with WM5) to post files to Wigle. Perhaps you'all might know a better way. I really would like to do it from the PDA rather then syncing and pulling the file off my device and using my laptop to do it. I haven't researched alternative methods yet but here's what I've got so far.

PocketPC WM5
Log into Wigle and press "browse" button on post file screen

Minimo - shows "open file" dialog with no options to select directories or files. Doesn't work.
I.E. - shows same "open file" dialog but only allows odd pre-configured "directory links" (personal) and even though "all files *.*" is selected its not showing all files but some even odder links.

So, is there a better way software wise? I'm gonna do some searching of pocketpc internet apps but I thought I'd post here in case someone ran into this.

Try to figure out into what directory either is opening ithe dialog box. It's My Documents on Mobile IE, if I recall correctly.

I'm going to look into the IE "bug" as it at least lists files, minimo neither doesn't list anything and has no way to make it list something.
