How does "share this file" work in Android?

Often in Android apps there's an icon to "share this". If I click that, I see a list of apps some I know like gmail and others I've not heard of. What I want to do is upload to my webserver. How can I do that ? Does each app have its own sharing methods, or is there a registry of ways to share different file types like there is in a web browser to display them ? If so, is there an app which will do WebDAV or POST to a configured webserver, or do I need to write my own ?

    All of the apps it lists are on your phone - see below for instructions on posting to a website - but if that doesn't work, you can always just e-mail the file to yourself and then post to your webserver from a computer.
