You can upload files via AJAX by using the FormData method. Although IE7,8 and 9 do not support FormData functionality.

$.ajax({
    url: "ajax.php", 
    type: "POST",             
    data: new FormData('form'),
    contentType: false,       
    cache: false,             
    processData:false, 
    success: function(data) {
        $("#response").html(data);
    }
});
