Kindle Fire and File Uploads

I've tried everything I can think of to get the Kindle Fire Browser to accept uploads, no dice. The file picker shows up, but the upload errors. Every once in a blue moon it works, and I can't figure out why. I've tried both HTML5 and normal FORM POST uploads.

Anybody have ideas, or better luck?

Also, the file selector pretends to be HTML5, but then returns 0 for the file size, screwing up any file size display.

Solution

  • looks like in Silk 2.1 (current version in the FireHD) it now works as expected... i was able to upload test content with the accelerated page loading functions on and off
