safari file upload doing my head in

Why can't we upload files in safari?

"For security reasons" is a nonsensical response.

It could easily open the Photos/iPhoto library, at the very least, or allow selection of any iLife/iWork documents.

This is a huge annoyance.

"For security reasons" is a nonsensical response.

You clearly have no idea how sandboxing works in iOS. Come back when you've educated yourself on such matters before denouncing factual replies as "nonsensical". And take it up with Apple if you don't agree with how they designed iOS.

I'm not talking about browsing files. It should be able to browse app objects using installed app's APIs, like every other app that can pick photos from your photo library or take a new photo.

L2read, "expert"

I'm not talking about browsing files.

I don't care what you're talking about. You didn't ask the original question over a year ago.

Learn to type, "boy" and look at post dates before digging up ancient threads.

The original question: "upload a photo to a website or upload a cv to a job site"

You posted completely wrong information. I corrected you, deal with it.

You didn't correct me at all! I answered the question absolutely correctly at the time AND provided possible alternative methods for doing what the OP asked.

Whereas you, a year after the OP abandoned the thread, provided no correction and no workarounds - just your uniformed 'opinion' that what I had posted was "nonsensical", and that you find it "a huge annoyance".

If Safari does offer photo and file uploads from other apps please do correct me, and tell us all how to enable what would be a very useful feature.

The fact is, Safari DOES NOT offer access to a users photo library for uploading, and due to the security sandboxing of iOS apps, CANNOT provide the selection of other apps data for uploading.

Correct that.

Julian is, of course, correct.
