I cannot find this anywhere. Is the android emulator able to upload files to a web server? I have been testing for the last hour or so and just realized it may not even be possible. Anyone know?

Yes its possible. It’s a little complex to post the code but essentially you’d use File class to find which file you want to upload and then use the apache HttpClient library to do the multiform post. Now if you think it won’t work because you don’t know what interface the user will use to find the file. There is a way to send an Intent to open a file.
Send an Intent for the user to select a file on Android
But the rest is simply writing the code to perform the upload.
