What you're describing is NOT FTP, but HTTP. The input type="file" HTML
element sends the uploaded file with the form's HTTP POST request. I am not
aware of any issues with this type of form field in Mac browsers. I would
have to guess that your issue lies somewhere in your server-side code which
is handling the upload. It isn't necessary for you to buy or install
anything, only to debug your code.
