Can you upload files from the iPad to a Web Browers

I recently received an iPad and I love it. I would also love to leave my laptop at home and only use the iPad while I'm away. One thing I think is missing for this to be possible is the lack of a native filesystem, as far as I know.

I know there are many apps that allow you to store and sync documents but I can't find a way to upload files to a website. For example, if I'm on a job site that requires me to upload my resume, the browse button on the browser is not active. I can't upload the files using the documents I've stored in Pages or in readdledocs.

Does anyone else think this is a major shortcoming?
Is there a way to do that I'm not aware of?

You assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

joe

Look in the app store for FTP apps, like FTP on the Go.

The problem with this solution is that it will not allow one to upload multiple files on the same page if there's already a file uploaded from Dropbox attached. This is my current dilemma.

Some job sites will allow you to use DropBox, which is free for the amount of storage you need to keep a resume on there. But if there isn't an actual DropBox option on the page, then you're out of luck.
