Attach photo to webmail and send from ipad

[Norriemca]

When I am away from home I must use Talktalk webmail to send emails not iPad mail.
When I click the webmail paper clip to send an attachment it is greyed out and does not allow me to select a file or photo.

I have tried to copy a photo but cannot paste into the webmail

Anyone know how to do this?

Thanls

Your best bet is to get DropBox. Then you can upload the picture to it and mail the share link instead.

Or the iCab Mobile browser may work. It Will upload photos to many websites.

Unless TalkTalk has an app this, or something similar is about it.

Thank you Twerppoet.

I have tried Dropbox, but it seems to want to upload photos via the iPad mail system and I cannot send emails that way. I must be on Talktalk webmail (or some other webmail) to get an email out.

Cheers

Why not set up a free gmail or hotmail account and just use that?

In iOS 6 you can upload pictures with Safari so that might make it easier to use web mail.

Nice. I knew that they were adding the ability to add photo attachments directly in the Mail app, but not the Safari upload. Makes sense, and it will be a welcome feature.

Three days and a wake up.

There are something like 200 new features in iOS 6. Most of them work on every device that runs iOS 6, however the highest profile ones are limited to the 4S or 5

Yep. I was just surprised that this particular one did not get more notice on the rumor/leak circuit. Or maybe it did, and I missed it. I suppose that's possible.

Thanks gents.

I'll try on ios6 and if that doesn't work, I'll set up a G mail account.
