Is this on your iPad/iPhone or on a laptop/desktop computer?

Sites that don't try to do anything too fancy shouldn't care that the real path to the document is hidden from them, they should be able to upload it anyway... However, if necessary, you could try a different browser.

I was trying to use my computer. I finally gave up and used my iPad, which worked fine.
