how to pass input type file data in ajax call

Question

I\'ve my form

\" method=\"post\">
    Photo <         


        

Answer 1

This is impossible.

Sending data via an ajax call is not supported from browsers.

The accepted workaround is to post the file in a hidden iframe in the background (so it looks like ajax). The solution here is to find your 'ajax file upload' library of choice and use that to upload the file.
