how do I POST a jpeg to a web form the way a browser would?

Question

I need to upload a file to a form. This is a generic browser based upload I want to mimic. I have looked through the HTML documentation but I can't figure out how it works.

right now I am using a URL to submit the rest of the form information "www.domain.com/form.html?field=value&field2=value2".

This is all there is to the HTML for the file upload.

<input type="file" name="Attach" />

I want to upload a jpeg so I changed the data to jpeg with this:

NSData *attachImage;
attachImage = UIImageJPEGRepresentation(image, 90);

Now I need to send the server the image information and file name while still giving it the rest of the URL. I have found a couple of examples of people doing this to a php file but none that actually mimic how a web browser would do it.
