I hope this will be useful. By doing photo upload to FB only with the help of javascript you can use the following method. Required thing here are imageData(which is base64 format of image) and the mime type.

try {
    blob = dataURItoBlob(imageData,mimeType);
} catch (e) {
    console.log(e);
}

var fd = new FormData();
fd.append("access_token",accessToken);
fd.append("source", blob);
fd.append("message","Kiss");

try {
   $.ajax({
        url:"https://graph.facebook.com/" + <> + "/photos?access_token=" + <>,
        type:"POST",
        data:fd,
        processData:false,
        contentType:false,
        cache:false,
        success:function(data){
            console.log("success " + data);
        },
        error:function(shr,status,data){
            console.log("error " + data + " Status " + shr.status);
        },
        complete:function(){
            console.log("Ajax Complete");
        }
   });

} catch(e) {
    console.log(e);
}

function dataURItoBlob(dataURI,mime) {
    // convert base64 to raw binary data held in a string
    // doesn't handle URLEncoded DataURIs

    var byteString = window.atob(dataURI);

    // separate out the mime component


    // write the bytes of the string to an ArrayBuffer
    //var ab = new ArrayBuffer(byteString.length);
    var ia = new Uint8Array(byteString.length);
    for (var i = 0; i < byteString.length; i++) {
        ia[i] = byteString.charCodeAt(i);
    }

    // write the ArrayBuffer to a blob, and you're done
    var blob = new Blob([ia], { type: mime });

    return blob;
}
