I am hoping someone can help with this issue ... I grab the image from iPhone's photo library and I am trying to post to a php page using POST, the data gets there but it seems to be corrupted, or at least we can't open it, it sends a png file..Can someone shine some light on this? Here's the code ..

-(void) grabImageUIImage *)theImage {

//creating the url request
NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://example.com/app/test/"];
NSMutableURLRequest *postRequest = [NSMutableURLRequest requestWithURL:url];

//adding header information
[postRequest setHTTPMethod:@"POST"];

NSString *stringBoundary = [NSString stringWithString:@"0xKhTmLbOuNdArY"];
NSString *contentType = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"multipart/form-data; boundary=%@",stringBoundary];
[postRequest addValue:contentType forHTTPHeaderField: @"Content-Type"];

NSData *imageData = UIImagePNGRepresentation(theImage);

if (imageData == nil) {
NSLog(@"Bad Image");
}

//setting up the body
NSMutableData *postBody = [NSMutableData data];
[postBody appendData:[[NSString stringWithFormat:@"--%@\r\n",stringBoundary] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[postBody appendData:[[NSString stringWithString:@"Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"sender_email\"\r\n\r\n"] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[postBody appendData:[[NSString stringWithString:@"ddavtian@maccius.com"] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[postBody appendData:[[NSString stringWithFormat:@"\r\n--%@\r\n",stringBoundary] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[postBody appendData:[[NSString stringWithString:@"Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"recipient_emails\"\r\n\r\n"] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[postBody appendData:[[NSString stringWithString:@"noc@maccius.com"] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[postBody appendData:[[NSString stringWithFormat:@"\r\n--%@\r\n",stringBoundary] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[postBody appendData:[[NSString stringWithString:@"Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"postcard_message\"\r\n\r\n"] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[postBody appendData:[[NSString stringWithString:@"hello this is a test"] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[postBody appendData:[[NSString stringWithFormat:@"\r\n--%@\r\n",stringBoundary] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[postBody appendData:[[NSString stringWithString:@"Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"ext\"\r\n\r\n"] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[postBody appendData:[[NSString stringWithString:@"png"] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[postBody appendData:[[NSString stringWithFormat:@"\r\n--%@\r\n",stringBoundary] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[postBody appendData:[[NSString stringWithString:@"Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"postcard\"\r\n\r\n"] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
// [postBody appendData:[[NSString stringWithString:@"Content-Type: image/png\r\n\r\n"] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
// [postBody appendData:[[NSString stringWithString:@"Content-Type: application/octet-stream\r\n\r\n"] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[postBody appendData:[[NSData alloc] initWithData:imageData]];
[postBody appendData:[[NSString stringWithFormat:@"\r\n--%@--\r\n",stringBoundary] dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]];
[postRequest setHTTPBodyostBody];

NSURLConnection *connectionResponse = [[NSURLConnection alloc] initWithRequestostRequest delegate:self];

if (!connectionResponse) {
NSLog(@"Failed to submit request");
} else {
NSLog(@"Request submitted");
}
}
