Hello, I am working on a mobile application on .net. This is a windows mobile application. I am facing a problem in this application that I wanna upload an image/file to given url/server. Many upload classes is not using like Webclient, WebRequest, WebResponse. I used HttpWebRequest, That is not connecting with server. Please anyone can help me on how to upload the images on given url in windows mobile 6 in .net.
Thanks in advance.
There is example code on CodeProject that reimplements WebClient.UploadFile "with more" using just HttpwebRequest and friends, which at first glance looks like it uses features that are available in the Compact Framework. You could check the code works with the full framework on a PC and use a tool like Fiddler to check what goes over the wire., before then compiling for the Compact Framework.
Hey take a look at this code for uploading at Image Shack:
You can modify it to use with other web site by just using Fiddler to change the web requests
public class Uploader
{
public string UploadFileToImageShack(object oFileName)
{
try
{
string fileName = oFileName as string;
string contentType = null;

col["MAX_FILE_SIZE"] = "3145728";
col["refer"] = "";
col["brand"] = "";
col["optimage"] = "1";
col["rembar"] = "1";
col["submit"] = "host it!";
List<string> l = new List<string>();
switch (fileName.Substring(fileName.Length - 3, 3))
{
case "jpg":
contentType = "image/jpeg";
break;
