Can I use the following jQuery code to perform file upload using POST method of an ajax request ?
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
timeout: 50000,
url: url,
data: dataString,
success: function (data) {
alert('success');
return false;
}
});
If it is possible, do I need to fill data part? Is it the correct way? I only POST the file to the server side.
I have been googling around, but what I found was a plugin while in my plan I do not want to use it. At least for the moment.
File upload is not possible through AJAX.
You can upload file, without refreshing page by using IFrame.
You can check further details here.
UPDATE
With XHR2, File upload through AJAX is supported. E.g. through FormData object, but unfortunately it is not supported by all/old browsers.
FormData support starts from following desktop browsers versions.
IE 10+
Firefox 4.0+
Chrome 7+
Safari 5+
Opera 12+
For more detail, see MDN link.
Iframes is no longer needed for uploading files through ajax. I've recently done it by myself. Check out these pages:
Using HTML5 file uploads with AJAX and jQuery
http://dev.w3.org/2006/webapi/FileAPI/#FileReader-interface
Updated the answer and cleaned it up. Use the getSize function to check size or use getType function to check types.
Added progressbar html and css code.
var Upload = function (file) {
this.file = file;
};
Upload.prototype.getType = function() {
return this.file.type;
};
Upload.prototype.getSize = function() {
return this.file.size;
};
Upload.prototype.getName = function() {
return this.file.name;
};
Upload.prototype.doUpload = function () {
var that = this;
var formData = new FormData();
// add assoc key values, this will be posts values
formData.append("file", this.file, this.getName());
formData.append("upload_file", true);
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "script",
xhr: function () {
var myXhr = $.ajaxSettings.xhr();
if (myXhr.upload) {
myXhr.upload.addEventListener('progress', that.progressHandling, false);
}
return myXhr;
},
success: function (data) {
// your callback here
},
error: function (error) {
// handle error
},
async: true,
data: formData,
cache: false,
contentType: false,
processData: false,
timeout: 60000
});
};
Upload.prototype.progressHandling = function (event) {
var percent = 0;
var position = event.loaded || event.position;
var total = event.total;
var progress_bar_id = "#progress-wrp";
if (event.lengthComputable) {
percent = Math.ceil(position / total * 100);
}
// update progressbars classes so it fits your code
$(progress_bar_id + " .progress-bar").css("width", +percent + "%");
$(progress_bar_id + " .status").text(percent + "%");
};
How to use the Upload class
//Change id to your id
$("#ingredient_file").on("change", function (e) {
var file = $(this)[0].files[0];
var upload = new Upload(file);
// maby check size or type here with upload.getSize() and upload.getType()
// execute upload
upload.doUpload();
});
Progressbar html code
<div id="progress-wrp">
<div class="progress-bar"></div>
<div class="status">0%</div>
</div>
Progressbar css code
#progress-wrp {
border: 1px solid #0099CC;
padding: 1px;
position: relative;
height: 30px;
border-radius: 3px;
margin: 10px;
text-align: left;
background: #fff;
box-shadow: inset 1px 3px 6px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.12);
}
#progress-wrp .progress-bar {
height: 100%;
border-radius: 3px;
background-color: #f39ac7;
width: 0;
box-shadow: inset 1px 1px 10px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.11);
}
#progress-wrp .status {
top: 3px;
left: 50%;
position: absolute;
display: inline-block;
color: #000000;
}
Ajax post and upload file is possible. I'm using jQuery $.ajax function to load my files. I tried to use the XHR object but could not get results on the server side with PHP.
var formData = new FormData();
formData.append('file', $('#file')[0].files[0]);
$.ajax({
url : 'upload.php',
type : 'POST',
data : formData,
processData: false, // tell jQuery not to process the data
contentType: false, // tell jQuery not to set contentType
success : function(data) {
console.log(data);
alert(data);
}
});
As you can see, you must create a FormData object, empty or from (serialized? - $('#yourForm').serialize()) existing form, and then attach the input file.
Here is more information:
- How to upload a file using jQuery.ajax and FormData
- Uploading files via jQuery, object FormData is provided and no file name, GET request
For the PHP process you can use something like this:
//print_r($_FILES);
$fileName = $_FILES['file']['name'];
$fileType = $_FILES['file']['type'];
$fileError = $_FILES['file']['error'];
$fileContent = file_get_contents($_FILES['file']['tmp_name']);
if($fileError == UPLOAD_ERR_OK){
//Processes your file here
}else{
switch($fileError){
case UPLOAD_ERR_INI_SIZE:
$message = 'Error al intentar subir un archivo que excede el tamaño permitido.';
break;
case UPLOAD_ERR_FORM_SIZE:
$message = 'Error al intentar subir un archivo que excede el tamaño permitido.';
break;
case UPLOAD_ERR_PARTIAL:
$message = 'Error: no terminó la acción de subir el archivo.';
break;
case UPLOAD_ERR_NO_FILE:
$message = 'Error: ningún archivo fue subido.';
break;
case UPLOAD_ERR_NO_TMP_DIR:
$message = 'Error: servidor no configurado para carga de archivos.';
break;
case UPLOAD_ERR_CANT_WRITE:
$message= 'Error: posible falla al grabar el archivo.';
break;
case UPLOAD_ERR_EXTENSION:
$message = 'Error: carga de archivo no completada.';
break;
default: $message = 'Error: carga de archivo no completada.';
break;
}
echo json_encode(array(
'error' => true,
'message' => $message
));
}
Simple Upload Form
<script>
//form Submit
$("form").submit(function(evt){
evt.preventDefault();
var formData = new FormData($(this)[0]);
$.ajax({
url: 'fileUpload',
type: 'POST',
data: formData,
async: false,
cache: false,
contentType: false,
enctype: 'multipart/form-data',
processData: false,
success: function (response) {
alert(response);
}
});
return false;
});
</script>
<!--Upload Form-->
<form>
<table>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">File Upload</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th>Select File </th>
<td><input id="csv" name="csv" type="file" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2">
<input type="submit" value="submit"/>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
I'm pretty late for this but I was looking for an ajax based image uploading solution and the answer I was looking for was kinda scattered throughout this post. The solution I settled on involved the FormData object. I assembled a basic form of the code I put together. You can see it demonstrates how to add a custom field to the form with fd.append() as well as how to handle response data when the ajax request is done.
Upload html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Image Upload Form</title>
<script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function submitForm() {
console.log("submit event");
var fd = new FormData(document.getElementById("fileinfo"));
fd.append("label", "WEBUPLOAD");
$.ajax({
url: "upload.php",
type: "POST",
data: fd,
processData: false, // tell jQuery not to process the data
contentType: false // tell jQuery not to set contentType
}).done(function( data ) {
console.log("PHP Output:");
console.log( data );
});
return false;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form method="post" id="fileinfo" name="fileinfo" onsubmit="return submitForm();">
<label>Select a file:</label><br>
<input type="file" name="file" required />
<input type="submit" value="Upload" />
</form>
<div id="output"></div>
</body>
</html>
In case you are working with php here's a way to handle the upload that includes making use of both of the custom fields demonstrated in the above html.
Upload.php
<?php
if ($_POST["label"]) {
$label = $_POST["label"];
}
$allowedExts = array("gif", "jpeg", "jpg", "png");
$temp = explode(".", $_FILES["file"]["name"]);
$extension = end($temp);
if ((($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/gif")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/jpeg")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/jpg")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/pjpeg")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/x-png")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/png"))
&& ($_FILES["file"]["size"] < 200000)
&& in_array($extension, $allowedExts)) {
if ($_FILES["file"]["error"] > 0) {
echo "Return Code: " . $_FILES["file"]["error"] . "<br>";
} else {
$filename = $label.$_FILES["file"]["name"];
echo "Upload: " . $_FILES["file"]["name"] . "<br>";
echo "Type: " . $_FILES["file"]["type"] . "<br>";
echo "Size: " . ($_FILES["file"]["size"] / 1024) . " kB<br>";
echo "Temp file: " . $_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"] . "<br>";
if (file_exists("uploads/" . $filename)) {
echo $filename . " already exists. ";
} else {
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"],
"uploads/" . $filename);
echo "Stored in: " . "uploads/" . $filename;
}
}
} else {
echo "Invalid file";
}
?>
An AJAX upload is indeed possible with XMLHttpRequest(). No iframes necessary. Upload progress can be shown.
For details see: Answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/4943774/873282 to question jQuery Upload Progress and AJAX file upload.
Here's how I got this working:
HTML
<input type="file" id="file">
<button id='process-file-button'>Process</button>
JS
$('#process-file-button').on('click', function (e) {
let files = new FormData(), // you can consider this as 'data bag'
url = 'yourUrl';
files.append('fileName', $('#file')[0].files[0]); // append selected file to the bag named 'file'
$.ajax({
type: 'post',
url: url,
processData: false,
contentType: false,
data: files,
success: function (response) {
console.log(response);
},
error: function (err) {
console.log(err);
}
});
});
PHP
if (isset($_FILES) && !empty($_FILES)) {
$file = $_FILES['fileName'];
$name = $file['name'];
$path = $file['tmp_name'];
// process your file
}
Using pure js it is easier
async function saveFile(inp)
{
let formData = new FormData();
formData.append("file", inp.files[0]);
await fetch('/upload/somedata', {method: "POST", body: formData});
alert('success');
}
<input type="file" onchange="saveFile(this)" >
In server side you can read original file name (and other info) which is automatically included to request.
You do NOT need to set header "Content-Type" to "multipart/form-data" browser will set it automatically
This solutions should work on all major browsers.
Here is more developed snippet with error handling, timeout and additional json sending
async function saveFile(inp)
{
let user = { name:'john', age:34 };
let formData = new FormData();
let photo = inp.files[0];
formData.append("photo", photo);
formData.append("user", JSON.stringify(user));
const ctrl = new AbortController() // timeout
setTimeout(() => ctrl.abort(), 50000);
try {
let r = await fetch('/upload/image',
{method: "POST", body: formData, signal: ctrl.signal});
console.log('HTTP response code:',r.status);
alert('success');
} catch(e) {
console.log('Huston we have problem...:', e);
}
}
<input type="file" onchange="saveFile(this)" >
<br><br>
Before selecting the file Open chrome console > network tab to see the request details.
<br><br>
<small>Because in this example we send request to https://stacksnippets.net/upload/image the response code will be 404 ofcourse...</small>
In case you want to do it like that:
$.upload( form.action, new FormData( myForm))
.progress( function( progressEvent, upload) {
if( progressEvent.lengthComputable) {
var percent = Math.round( progressEvent.loaded * 100 / progressEvent.total) + '%';
if( upload) {
console.log( percent + ' uploaded');
} else {
console.log( percent + ' downloaded');
}
}
})
.done( function() {
console.log( 'Finished upload');
});
than
https://github.com/lgersman/jquery.orangevolt-ampere/blob/master/src/jquery.upload.js
might be your solution.
Use FormData. It works really well :-) ...
var jform = new FormData();
jform.append('user',$('#user').val());
jform.append('image',$('#image').get(0).files[0]); // Here's the important bit
$.ajax({
url: '/your-form-processing-page-url-here',
type: 'POST',
data: jform,
dataType: 'json',
mimeType: 'multipart/form-data', // this too
contentType: false,
cache: false,
processData: false,
success: function(data, status, jqXHR){
alert('Hooray! All is well.');
console.log(data);
console.log(status);
console.log(jqXHR);
},
error: function(jqXHR,status,error){
// Hopefully we should never reach here
console.log(jqXHR);
console.log(status);
console.log(error);
}
});
$("#submit_car").click(function() {
var formData = new FormData($('#car_cost_form')[0]);
$.ajax({
url: 'car_costs.php',
data: formData,
contentType: false,
processData: false,
cache: false,
type: 'POST',
success: function(data) {
// ...
},
});
});
edit: Note contentype and process data
You can simply use this to upload files via Ajax...... submit input cannot be outside form element :)
2019 update:
html
<form class="fr" method='POST' enctype="multipart/form-data"> {% csrf_token %}
<textarea name='text'>
<input name='example_image'>
<button type="submit">
</form>
js
$(document).on('submit', '.fr', function(){
$.ajax({
type: 'post',
url: url, <--- you insert proper URL path to call your views.py function here.
enctype: 'multipart/form-data',
processData: false,
contentType: false,
data: new FormData(this) ,
success: function(data) {
console.log(data);
}
});
return false;
});
views.py
form = ThisForm(request.POST, request.FILES)
if form.is_valid():
text = form.cleaned_data.get("text")
example_image = request.FILES['example_image']
Use a hidden iframe and set your form's target to that iframe's name. This way, when the form is submitted, only the iframe will be refreshed.
Have an event handler registered for the iframe's load event to parse the response.
I have handled these in a simple code. You can download a working demo from here
For your case, these very possible. I will take you step by step how you can upload a file to the server using AJAX jquery.
First let's us create an HTML file to add the following form file element as shown below.
<form action="" id="formContent" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" >
<input type="file" name="file" required id="upload">
<button class="submitI" >Upload Image</button>
</form>
Secondly create a jquery.js file and add the following code to handle our file submission to the server
$("#formContent").submit(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
var formdata = new FormData(this);
$.ajax({
url: "ajax_upload_image.php",
type: "POST",
data: formdata,
mimeTypes:"multipart/form-data",
contentType: false,
cache: false,
processData: false,
success: function(){
alert("file successfully submitted");
},error: function(){
alert("okey");
}
});
});
});

Using FormData is the way to go as indicated by many answers. here is a bit of code that works great for this purpose. I also agree with the comment of nesting ajax blocks to complete complex circumstances. By including e.PreventDefault(); in my experience makes the code more cross browser compatible.
$('#UploadB1').click(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
if (!fileupload.valid()) {
return false;
}
var myformData = new FormData();
myformData.append('file', $('#uploadFile')[0].files[0]);
$("#UpdateMessage5").html("Uploading file ....");
$("#UpdateMessage5").css("background","url(../include/images/loaderIcon.gif) no-repeat right");
myformData.append('mode', 'fileUpload');
myformData.append('myid', $('#myid').val());
myformData.append('type', $('#fileType').val());
//formData.append('myfile', file, file.name);
$.ajax({
url: 'include/fetch.php',
method: 'post',
processData: false,
contentType: false,
cache: false,
data: myformData,
enctype: 'multipart/form-data',
success: function(response){
$("#UpdateMessage5").html(response); //.delay(2000).hide(1);
$("#UpdateMessage5").css("background","");
console.log("file successfully submitted");
},error: function(){
console.log("not okay");
}
});
});
I have implemented a multiple file select with instant preview and upload after removing unwanted files from preview via ajax.
Detailed documentation can be found here: http://anasthecoder.blogspot.ae/2014/12/multi-file-select-preview-without.html
Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/anas/6v8Kz/7/embedded/result/

Yes you can, just use javascript to get the file, making sure you read the file as a data URL. Parse out the stuff before base64 to actually get the base 64 encoded data and then if you are using php or really any back end language you can decode the base 64 data and save into a file like shown below
Javascript:
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onloadend = function ()
{
dataToBeSent = reader.result.split("base64,")[1];
$.post(url, {data:dataToBeSent});
}
reader.readAsDataURL(this.files[0]);
PHP:
file_put_contents('my.pdf', base64_decode($_POST["data"]));
Of course you will probably want to do some validation like checking which file type you are dealing with and stuff like that but this is the idea.
To get all your form inputs, including the type="file" you need to use FormData object.
you will be able to see the formData content in the debugger -> network ->Headers after you will submit the form.
var url = "YOUR_URL";
var form = $('#YOUR_FORM_ID')[0];
var formData = new FormData(form);
$.ajax(url, {
method: 'post',
processData: false,
contentType: false,
data: formData
}).done(function(data){
if (data.success){
alert("Files uploaded");
} else {
alert("Error while uploading the files");
}
}).fail(function(data){
console.log(data);
alert("Error while uploading the files");
});

to upload a file which is submitted by user as a part of form using jquery please follow the below code :
var formData = new FormData();
formData.append("userfile", fileInputElement.files[0]);
Then send the form data object to server.
We can also append a File or Blob directly to the FormData object.
data.append("myfile", myBlob, "filename.txt");
You can use method ajaxSubmit as follow :)
when you select a file that need upload to server, form be submit to server :)
$(document).ready(function () {
var options = {
target: '#output', // target element(s) to be updated with server response
timeout: 30000,
error: function (jqXHR, textStatus) {
$('#output').html('have any error');
return false;
}
},
success: afterSuccess, // post-submit callback
resetForm: true
// reset the form after successful submit
};
$('#idOfInputFile').on('change', function () {
$('#idOfForm').ajaxSubmit(options);
// always return false to prevent standard browser submit and page navigation
return false;
});
});
If you want to upload file using AJAX here is code which you can use for file uploading.
$(document).ready(function() {
var options = {
beforeSubmit: showRequest,
success: showResponse,
dataType: 'json'
};
$('body').delegate('#image','change', function(){
$('#upload').ajaxForm(options).submit();
});
});
function showRequest(formData, jqForm, options) {
$("#validation-errors").hide().empty();
$("#output").css('display','none');
return true;
}
function showResponse(response, statusText, xhr, $form) {
if(response.success == false)
{
var arr = response.errors;
$.each(arr, function(index, value)
{
if (value.length != 0)
{
$("#validation-errors").append('<div class="alert alert-error"><strong>'+ value +'</strong><div>');
}
});
$("#validation-errors").show();
} else {
$("#output").html("<img src='"+response.file+"' />");
$("#output").css('display','block');
}
}
Here is the HTML for Upload the file
<form class="form-horizontal" id="upload" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="upload/image'" autocomplete="off">
<input type="file" name="image" id="image" />
</form>
var dataform = new FormData($("#myform")[0]);
//console.log(dataform);
$.ajax({
url: 'url',
type: 'POST',
data: dataform,
async: false,
success: function(res) {
response data;
},
cache: false,
contentType: false,
processData: false
});
<input class="form-control cu-b-border" type="file" id="formFile">
<img id="myImg" src="#">
In js
<script>
var formData = new FormData();
formData.append('file', $('#formFile')[0].files[0]);
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: '/GetData/UploadImage',
data: formData,
processData: false, // tell jQuery not to process the data
contentType: false, // tell jQuery not to set contentType
success: function (data) {
console.log(data);
$('#myImg').attr('src', data);
},
error: function (xhr, ajaxOptions, thrownError) {
}
})
</script>
In controller
public ActionResult UploadImage(HttpPostedFileBase file)
{
string filePath = "";
if (file != null)
{
string path = "/uploads/Temp/";
if (!Directory.Exists(Server.MapPath("~" + path)))
{
Directory.CreateDirectory(Server.MapPath("~" + path));
}
filePath = FileUpload.SaveUploadedFile(file, path);
}
return Json(filePath, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
Here was an idea I was thinking of:
Have an iframe on page and have a referencer.
Have a form in which you move the input type file element to.
Form: A processing page AND a target of the FRAME.
The result will post to the iframe, and then you can just send the fetched data up a level to the image tag you want with something like:
data:image/png;base64,asdfasdfasdfasdfa
and the page loads.
I believe it works for me, and depending you might be able to do something like:
.aftersubmit(function(){
stopPropagation(); // or some other code which would prevent a refresh.
});
This is my code that it works
var formData = new FormData();
var files = $('input[type=file]');
for (var i = 0; i < files.length; i++) {
if (files[i].value == "" || files[i].value == null) {
return false;
}
else {
formData.append(files[i].name, files[i].files[0]);
}
}
var formSerializeArray = $("#Form").serializeArray();
for (var i = 0; i < formSerializeArray.length; i++) {
formData.append(formSerializeArray[i].name, formSerializeArray[i].value)
}
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
data: formData,
contentType: false,
processData: false,
cache: false,
url: '/Controller/Action',
success: function (response) {
if (response.Success == true) {
return true;
}
else {
return false;
}
},
error: function () {
return false;
},
failure: function () {
return false;
}
});
$("#form-id").submit(function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
});
$("#form-id").submit(function (e) {
var formObj = $(this);
var formURL = formObj.attr("action");
var formData = new FormData(this);
$.ajax({
url: formURL,
type: 'POST',
data: formData,
processData: false,
contentType: false,
async: true,
cache: false,
enctype: "multipart/form-data",
dataType: "json",
success: function (data) {
if (data.success) {
alert(data.success)
}
if (data.error) {
alert(data.error)
}
}
});
});

I'm using jQuery and Ajax for my forms to submit data and files but I'm not sure how to send both data and files in one form?
I currently do almost the same with both methods but the way in which the data is gathered into an array is different, the data uses .serialize(); but the files use = new FormData($(this)[0]);
Is it possible to combine both methods to be able to upload files and data in one form through Ajax?
Data jQuery, Ajax and html
$("form#data").submit(function(){
var formData = $(this).serialize();
$.ajax({
url: window.location.pathname,
type: 'POST',
data: formData,
async: false,
success: function (data) {
alert(data)
},
cache: false,
contentType: false,
processData: false
});
return false;
});
<form id="data" method="post">
<input type="text" name="first" value="Bob" />
<input type="text" name="middle" value="James" />
<input type="text" name="last" value="Smith" />
<button>Submit</button>
</form>
Files jQuery, Ajax and html
$("form#files").submit(function(){
var formData = new FormData($(this)[0]);
$.ajax({
url: window.location.pathname,
type: 'POST',
data: formData,
async: false,
success: function (data) {
alert(data)
},
cache: false,
contentType: false,
processData: false
});
return false;
});
<form id="files" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input name="image" type="file" />
<button>Submit</button>
</form>
How can I combine the above so that I can send data and files in one form via Ajax?
My aim is to be able to send all of this form in one post with Ajax, is it possible?
<form id="datafiles" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="text" name="first" value="Bob" />
<input type="text" name="middle" value="James" />
<input type="text" name="last" value="Smith" />
<input name="image" type="file" />
<button>Submit</button>
</form>
The problem I had was using the wrong jQuery identifier.
You can upload data and files with one form using ajax.
PHP + HTML
<?php
print_r($_POST);
print_r($_FILES);
?>
<form id="data" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="text" name="first" value="Bob" />
<input type="text" name="middle" value="James" />
<input type="text" name="last" value="Smith" />
<input name="image" type="file" />
<button>Submit</button>
</form>
jQuery + Ajax
$("form#data").submit(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
var formData = new FormData(this);
$.ajax({
url: window.location.pathname,
type: 'POST',
data: formData,
success: function (data) {
alert(data)
},
cache: false,
contentType: false,
processData: false
});
});
Short Version
$("form#data").submit(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
var formData = new FormData(this);
$.post($(this).attr("action"), formData, function(data) {
alert(data);
});
});
another option is to use an iframe and set the form's target to it.
you may try this (it uses jQuery):
function ajax_form($form, on_complete)
{
var iframe;
if (!$form.attr('target'))
{
//create a unique iframe for the form
iframe = $("<iframe></iframe>").attr('name', 'ajax_form_' + Math.floor(Math.random() * 999999)).hide().appendTo($('body'));
$form.attr('target', iframe.attr('name'));
}
if (on_complete)
{
iframe = iframe || $('iframe[name="' + $form.attr('target') + '"]');
iframe.load(function ()
{
//get the server response
var response = iframe.contents().find('body').text();
on_complete(response);
});
}
}
it works well with all browsers, you don't need to serialize or prepare the data.
one down side is that you can't monitor the progress.
also, at least for chrome, the request will not appear in the "xhr" tab of the developer tools but under "doc"
I was having this same issue in ASP.Net MVC with HttpPostedFilebase and instead of using form on Submit I needed to use button on click where I needed to do some stuff and then if all OK the submit form so here is how I got it working
$(".submitbtn").on("click", function(e) {
var form = $("#Form");
// you can't pass Jquery form it has to be javascript form object
var formData = new FormData(form[0]);
//if you only need to upload files then
//Grab the File upload control and append each file manually to FormData
//var files = form.find("#fileupload")[0].files;
//$.each(files, function() {
// var file = $(this);
// formData.append(file[0].name, file[0]);
//});
if ($(form).valid()) {
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: $(form).prop("action"),
//dataType: 'json', //not sure but works for me without this
data: formData,
contentType: false, //this is requireded please see answers above
processData: false, //this is requireded please see answers above
//cache: false, //not sure but works for me without this
error : ErrorHandler,
success : successHandler
});
}
});
this will than correctly populate your MVC model, please make sure in your Model, The Property for HttpPostedFileBase[] has the same name as the Name of the input control in html i.e.
<input id="fileupload" type="file" name="UploadedFiles" multiple>
public class MyViewModel
{
public HttpPostedFileBase[] UploadedFiles { get; set; }
}
Or shorter:
$("form#data").submit(function() {
var formData = new FormData(this);
$.post($(this).attr("action"), formData, function() {
// success
});
return false;
});
EDIT: with the new version of JQuery (3.6), you could also try using contentType function argument instead of enctype. Try contentType: multipart/form-data.
For me, it didn't work without enctype: 'multipart/form-data' field in the Ajax request. I hope it helps someone who is stuck in a similar problem.
Even though the enctype was already set in the form attribute, for some reason, the Ajax request didn't automatically identify the enctype without explicit declaration (jQuery 3.3.1).
// Tested, this works for me (jQuery 3.3.1)
fileUploadForm.submit(function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
url: $(this).attr('action'),
enctype: 'multipart/form-data',
data: new FormData(this),
processData: false,
contentType: false,
success: function (data) {
console.log('Thank God it worked!');
}
}
);
});
// enctype field was set in the form but Ajax request didn't set it by default.
<form action="process/file-upload" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" >
<input type="file" name="input-file" accept="text/plain" required>
...
</form>
As others mentioned above, please also pay special attention to the contentType and processData fields.
A Simple but more effective way:
new FormData() is itself like a container (or a bag). You can put everything attr or file in itself.
The only thing you'll need to append the attribute, file, fileName eg:
let formData = new FormData()
formData.append('input', input.files[0], input.files[0].name)
and just pass it in AJAX request. Eg:
let formData = new FormData()
var d = $('#fileid')[0].files[0]
formData.append('fileid', d);
formData.append('inputname', value);
$.ajax({
url: '/yourroute',
method: 'POST',
contentType: false,
processData: false,
data: formData,
success: function(res){
console.log('successfully')
},
error: function(){
console.log('error')
}
})
You can append n number of files or data with FormData.
and if you're making AJAX Request from Script.js file to Route file in Node.js beware of using
req.body to access data (ie text)
req.files to access file (ie image, video etc)
The code below works for me
$(function () {
debugger;
document.getElementById("FormId").addEventListener("submit", function (e) {
debugger;
if (ValidDateFrom()) { // Check Validation
var form = e.target;
if (form.getAttribute("enctype") === "multipart/form-data") {
debugger;
if (form.dataset.ajax) {
e.preventDefault();
e.stopImmediatePropagation();
var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhr.open(form.method, form.action);
xhr.onreadystatechange = function (result) {
debugger;
if (xhr.readyState == 4 && xhr.status == 200) {
debugger;
var responseData = JSON.parse(xhr.responseText);
SuccessMethod(responseData); // Redirect to your Success method
}
};
xhr.send(new FormData(form));
}
}
}
}, true);
});
In your Action Post Method, pass parameter as HttpPostedFileBase UploadFile and make sure your file input has same as mentioned in your parameter of the Action Method.
It should work with AJAX Begin form as well.
Remember over here that your AJAX BEGIN Form will not work over here since you make your post call defined in the code mentioned above and you can reference your method in the code as per the Requirement
I know I am answering late but this is what worked for me
Just to remind, in 2022 you don't need to use jquery. Try js standard Fetch API
var formData = new FormData(this);
fetch(url, {
method: 'POST',
body: formData
})
.then(response => {
if(response.ok) {
//success
alert(response);
} else {
throw Error('Server error');
}
})
.catch(error => {
console.log('fail', error);
});
This is a solution that I implemented
var formData = new FormData();
var files = $('input[type=file]');
for (var i = 0; i < files.length; i++) {
if (files[i].value == "" || files[i].value == null) {
return false;
}
else {
formData.append(files[i].name, files[i].files[0]);
}
}
var formSerializeArray = $("#Form").serializeArray();
for (var i = 0; i < formSerializeArray.length; i++) {
formData.append(formSerializeArray[i].name, formSerializeArray[i].value)
}
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
data: formData,
contentType: false,
processData: false,
cache: false,
url: '/Controller/Action',
success: function (response) {
if (response.Success == true) {
return true;
}
else {
return false;
}
},
error: function () {
return false;
},
failure: function () {
return false;
}
});
---Solution for DOT NET CORE MVC Implementation---
While looking at this question I though I should right .NET CORE implementation for this because the question is not specific to any backend language.
So guys here is the standalone implementation example.
Objective :- To submit form fields including files and how we can get data in a single model at backend
HTML Code / View Code - Views/Home/Index.cshtml
#{
ViewData["Title"] = "Home Page";
}
<input type="file" id="FileUpload1" multiple />
<div>
<label>Enter First Name :</label>
<input type="text" id="nameText" maxlength="50" />
</div>
<input type="button" id="btnUpload" value="Submit Form with Files" />
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#btnUpload').click(function () {
// Checking whether FormData is available in browser
if (window.FormData !== undefined) {
var fileUpload = $("#FileUpload1").get(0);
var files = fileUpload.files;
// Create FormData object
var fileData = new FormData();
// Looping over all files and add it to FormData object
for (var i = 0; i < files.length; i++) {
fileData.append("files", files[i]);
}
// Adding one more key to FormData object
fileData.append('FirstName', $("#nameText").val());
$.ajax({
url: '/Home/UploadFiles',
type: "POST",
contentType: false, // Not to set any content header
processData: false, // Not to process data
data: fileData,
success: function (result) {
alert(result);
},
error: function (err) {
alert(err.statusText);
}
});
} else {
alert("FormData is not supported.");
}
});
});
</script>

In my case I had to make a POST request, which had information sent through the header, and also a file sent using a FormData object.
I made it work using a combination of some of the answers here, so basically what ended up working was having this five lines in my Ajax request:
contentType: "application/octet-stream",
enctype: 'multipart/form-data',
contentType: false,
processData: false,
data: formData,
Where formData was a variable created like this:
var file = document.getElementById('uploadedFile').files[0];
var form = $('form')[0];
var formData = new FormData(form);
formData.append("File", file);
you can just append them on your formdata, add your files and datas in it.you can read this..
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/FormData/append
for better understanding. you can separately retrieve them $_FILES for your files and $_POST for your data.
<form id="form" method="post" action="otherpage.php" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="text" name="first" value="Bob" />
<input type="text" name="middle" value="James" />
<input type="text" name="last" value="Smith" />
<input name="image" type="file" />
<button type='button' id='submit_btn'>Submit</button>
</form>
<script>
$(document).on("click", "#submit_btn", function (e) {
//Prevent Instant Click
e.preventDefault();
// Create an FormData object
var formData = $("#form").submit(function (e) {
return;
});
//formData[0] contain form data only
// You can directly make object via using form id but it require all ajax operation inside $("form").submit(<!-- Ajax Here -->)
var formData = new FormData(formData[0]);
$.ajax({
url: $('#form').attr('action'),
type: 'POST',
data: formData,
success: function (response) {
console.log(response);
},
contentType: false,
processData: false,
cache: false
});
return false;
});
</script>
///// otherpage.php
<?php
print_r($_FILES);
?>
I need little help. I created ajax form and pass the data to the api.php. I have no problem sending normal value to the php. I currently facing problem on sending file through.
HTML
<form id="adding" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" id="imgInp">
<input type="text" id="name">
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-default pull-right">Submit</button>
</form>
Javascript
$('#adding').submit(function(e) {
e.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: 'api.php?do=add',
data: {
img: $("#imgInp").val(),
name: $("#name").val()
},
success: function(data)
{
if (data === 'KO'){
document.getElementById("error").innerHTML = "Alert";
}
if (data === 'OK'){
document.getElementById("error").innerHTML = "OK";
}
}
});
Data from variable name can be send but not from img. Please help. Thank you
Sounds to me like you need to use the form data object. In the data attribute, via your ajax call,
FYI: you need to have jquery libraries to get this working
This would grab all form contents and then you can receive theform contents including the image on your php controller
$('#adding').submit(function(e) {
var formData = new FormData($(this));
e.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: 'api.php?do=add',
data: formData ,
contentType: false,
processData: false,
cache: false,
success: function(data)
{
if (data === 'KO'){
document.getElementById("error").innerHTML = "Alert";
}
if (data === 'OK'){
document.getElementById("error").innerHTML = "OK";
}
}
});
On your php side,
<?php
try{
if(isset($_FILES) && $_FILES['tmp_name'] != null){
//awesome, we have something here
//then check for extensions, validate and move upload
}else{
//no file
}
}catch(Exception $ex){
echo($ex->getMessage());
}
?>
Can I use the following jQuery code to perform file upload using POST method of an ajax request ?
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
timeout: 50000,
url: url,
data: dataString,
success: function (data) {
alert('success');
return false;
}
});
If it is possible, do I need to fill data part? Is it the correct way? I only POST the file to the server side.
I have been googling around, but what I found was a plugin while in my plan I do not want to use it. At least for the moment.
File upload is not possible through AJAX.
You can upload file, without refreshing page by using IFrame.
You can check further details here.
UPDATE
With XHR2, File upload through AJAX is supported. E.g. through FormData object, but unfortunately it is not supported by all/old browsers.
FormData support starts from following desktop browsers versions.
IE 10+
Firefox 4.0+
Chrome 7+
Safari 5+
Opera 12+
For more detail, see MDN link.
Iframes is no longer needed for uploading files through ajax. I've recently done it by myself. Check out these pages:
Using HTML5 file uploads with AJAX and jQuery
http://dev.w3.org/2006/webapi/FileAPI/#FileReader-interface
Updated the answer and cleaned it up. Use the getSize function to check size or use getType function to check types.
Added progressbar html and css code.
var Upload = function (file) {
this.file = file;
};
Upload.prototype.getType = function() {
return this.file.type;
};
Upload.prototype.getSize = function() {
return this.file.size;
};
Upload.prototype.getName = function() {
return this.file.name;
};
Upload.prototype.doUpload = function () {
var that = this;
var formData = new FormData();
// add assoc key values, this will be posts values
formData.append("file", this.file, this.getName());
formData.append("upload_file", true);
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "script",
xhr: function () {
var myXhr = $.ajaxSettings.xhr();
if (myXhr.upload) {
myXhr.upload.addEventListener('progress', that.progressHandling, false);
}
return myXhr;
},
success: function (data) {
// your callback here
},
error: function (error) {
// handle error
},
async: true,
data: formData,
cache: false,
contentType: false,
processData: false,
timeout: 60000
});
};
Upload.prototype.progressHandling = function (event) {
var percent = 0;
var position = event.loaded || event.position;
var total = event.total;
var progress_bar_id = "#progress-wrp";
if (event.lengthComputable) {
percent = Math.ceil(position / total * 100);
}
// update progressbars classes so it fits your code
$(progress_bar_id + " .progress-bar").css("width", +percent + "%");
$(progress_bar_id + " .status").text(percent + "%");
};
How to use the Upload class
//Change id to your id
$("#ingredient_file").on("change", function (e) {
var file = $(this)[0].files[0];
var upload = new Upload(file);
// maby check size or type here with upload.getSize() and upload.getType()
// execute upload
upload.doUpload();
});
Progressbar html code
<div id="progress-wrp">
<div class="progress-bar"></div>
<div class="status">0%</div>
</div>
Progressbar css code
#progress-wrp {
border: 1px solid #0099CC;
padding: 1px;
position: relative;
height: 30px;
border-radius: 3px;
margin: 10px;
text-align: left;
background: #fff;
box-shadow: inset 1px 3px 6px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.12);
}
#progress-wrp .progress-bar {
height: 100%;
border-radius: 3px;
background-color: #f39ac7;
width: 0;
box-shadow: inset 1px 1px 10px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.11);
}
#progress-wrp .status {
top: 3px;
left: 50%;
position: absolute;
display: inline-block;
color: #000000;
}
Ajax post and upload file is possible. I'm using jQuery $.ajax function to load my files. I tried to use the XHR object but could not get results on the server side with PHP.
var formData = new FormData();
formData.append('file', $('#file')[0].files[0]);
$.ajax({
url : 'upload.php',
type : 'POST',
data : formData,
processData: false, // tell jQuery not to process the data
contentType: false, // tell jQuery not to set contentType
success : function(data) {
console.log(data);
alert(data);
}
});
As you can see, you must create a FormData object, empty or from (serialized? - $('#yourForm').serialize()) existing form, and then attach the input file.
Here is more information:
- How to upload a file using jQuery.ajax and FormData
- Uploading files via jQuery, object FormData is provided and no file name, GET request
For the PHP process you can use something like this:
//print_r($_FILES);
$fileName = $_FILES['file']['name'];
$fileType = $_FILES['file']['type'];
$fileError = $_FILES['file']['error'];
$fileContent = file_get_contents($_FILES['file']['tmp_name']);
if($fileError == UPLOAD_ERR_OK){
//Processes your file here
}else{
switch($fileError){
case UPLOAD_ERR_INI_SIZE:
$message = 'Error al intentar subir un archivo que excede el tamaño permitido.';
break;
case UPLOAD_ERR_FORM_SIZE:
$message = 'Error al intentar subir un archivo que excede el tamaño permitido.';
break;
case UPLOAD_ERR_PARTIAL:
$message = 'Error: no terminó la acción de subir el archivo.';
break;
case UPLOAD_ERR_NO_FILE:
$message = 'Error: ningún archivo fue subido.';
break;
case UPLOAD_ERR_NO_TMP_DIR:
$message = 'Error: servidor no configurado para carga de archivos.';
break;
case UPLOAD_ERR_CANT_WRITE:
$message= 'Error: posible falla al grabar el archivo.';
break;
case UPLOAD_ERR_EXTENSION:
$message = 'Error: carga de archivo no completada.';
break;
default: $message = 'Error: carga de archivo no completada.';
break;
}
echo json_encode(array(
'error' => true,
'message' => $message
));
}
Simple Upload Form

$("form").submit(function(evt){
evt.preventDefault();
var formData = new FormData($(this)[0]);
$.ajax({

data: formData,
async: false,
cache: false,
contentType: false,
enctype: 'multipart/form-data',
processData: false,
success: function (response) {
alert(response);

I'm pretty late for this but I was looking for an ajax based image uploading solution and the answer I was looking for was kinda scattered throughout this post. The solution I settled on involved the FormData object. I assembled a basic form of the code I put together. You can see it demonstrates how to add a custom field to the form with fd.append() as well as how to handle response data when the ajax request is done.
Upload html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Image Upload Form</title>
<script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
function submitForm() {
console.log("submit event");
var fd = new FormData(document.getElementById("fileinfo"));
fd.append("label", "WEBUPLOAD");
$.ajax({
url: "upload.php",
type: "POST",
data: fd,
processData: false, // tell jQuery not to process the data
contentType: false // tell jQuery not to set contentType
}).done(function( data ) {
console.log("PHP Output:");
console.log( data );
});
return false;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form method="post" id="fileinfo" name="fileinfo" onsubmit="return submitForm();">
<label>Select a file:</label><br>
<input type="file" name="file" required />
<input type="submit" value="Upload" />
</form>
<div id="output"></div>
</body>
</html>
In case you are working with php here's a way to handle the upload that includes making use of both of the custom fields demonstrated in the above html.
Upload.php
<?php
if ($_POST["label"]) {
$label = $_POST["label"];
}
$allowedExts = array("gif", "jpeg", "jpg", "png");
$temp = explode(".", $_FILES["file"]["name"]);
$extension = end($temp);
if ((($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/gif")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/jpeg")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/jpg")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/pjpeg")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/x-png")
|| ($_FILES["file"]["type"] == "image/png"))
&& ($_FILES["file"]["size"] < 200000)
&& in_array($extension, $allowedExts)) {
if ($_FILES["file"]["error"] > 0) {
echo "Return Code: " . $_FILES["file"]["error"] . "<br>";
} else {
$filename = $label.$_FILES["file"]["name"];
echo "Upload: " . $_FILES["file"]["name"] . "<br>";
echo "Type: " . $_FILES["file"]["type"] . "<br>";
echo "Size: " . ($_FILES["file"]["size"] / 1024) . " kB<br>";
echo "Temp file: " . $_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"] . "<br>";
if (file_exists("uploads/" . $filename)) {
echo $filename . " already exists. ";
} else {
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["file"]["tmp_name"],
"uploads/" . $filename);
echo "Stored in: " . "uploads/" . $filename;
}
}
} else {
echo "Invalid file";
}
?>
An AJAX upload is indeed possible with XMLHttpRequest(). No iframes necessary. Upload progress can be shown.
For details see: Answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/4943774/873282 to question jQuery Upload Progress and AJAX file upload.
Here's how I got this working:
HTML
<input type="file" id="file">
<button id='process-file-button'>Process</button>
JS
$('#process-file-button').on('click', function (e) {
let files = new FormData(), // you can consider this as 'data bag'
url = 'yourUrl';
files.append('fileName', $('#file')[0].files[0]); // append selected file to the bag named 'file'
$.ajax({
type: 'post',
url: url,
processData: false,
contentType: false,
data: files,
success: function (response) {
console.log(response);
},
error: function (err) {
console.log(err);
}
});
});
PHP
if (isset($_FILES) && !empty($_FILES)) {
$file = $_FILES['fileName'];
$name = $file['name'];
$path = $file['tmp_name'];
// process your file
}
Using pure js it is easier
async function saveFile(inp)
{
let formData = new FormData();
formData.append("file", inp.files[0]);
await fetch('/upload/somedata', {method: "POST", body: formData});
alert('success');
}
<input type="file" onchange="saveFile(this)" >
In server side you can read original file name (and other info) which is automatically included to request.
You do NOT need to set header "Content-Type" to "multipart/form-data" browser will set it automatically
This solutions should work on all major browsers.
Here is more developed snippet with error handling, timeout and additional json sending
async function saveFile(inp)
{
let user = { name:'john', age:34 };
let formData = new FormData();
let photo = inp.files[0];
formData.append("photo", photo);
formData.append("user", JSON.stringify(user));
const ctrl = new AbortController() // timeout
setTimeout(() => ctrl.abort(), 50000);
try {
let r = await fetch('/upload/image',
{method: "POST", body: formData, signal: ctrl.signal});
console.log('HTTP response code:',r.status);
alert('success');
} catch(e) {
console.log('Huston we have problem...:', e);
}
}
<input type="file" onchange="saveFile(this)" >
<br><br>
Before selecting the file Open chrome console > network tab to see the request details.
<br><br>
<small>Because in this example we send request to https://stacksnippets.net/upload/image the response code will be 404 ofcourse...</small>
In case you want to do it like that:
$.upload( form.action, new FormData( myForm))
.progress( function( progressEvent, upload) {
if( progressEvent.lengthComputable) {
var percent = Math.round( progressEvent.loaded * 100 / progressEvent.total) + '%';
if( upload) {
console.log( percent + ' uploaded');
} else {
console.log( percent + ' downloaded');
}
}
})
.done( function() {
console.log( 'Finished upload');
});
than
https://github.com/lgersman/jquery.orangevolt-ampere/blob/master/src/jquery.upload.js
might be your solution.
Use FormData. It works really well :-) ...
var jform = new FormData();
jform.append('user',$('#user').val());
jform.append('image',$('#image').get(0).files[0]); // Here's the important bit
$.ajax({
url: '/your-form-processing-page-url-here',
type: 'POST',
data: jform,
dataType: 'json',
mimeType: 'multipart/form-data', // this too
contentType: false,
cache: false,
processData: false,
success: function(data, status, jqXHR){
alert('Hooray! All is well.');
console.log(data);
console.log(status);
console.log(jqXHR);
},
error: function(jqXHR,status,error){
// Hopefully we should never reach here
console.log(jqXHR);
console.log(status);
console.log(error);
}
});
$("#submit_car").click(function() {
var formData = new FormData($('#car_cost_form')[0]);
$.ajax({
url: 'car_costs.php',
data: formData,
contentType: false,
processData: false,
cache: false,
type: 'POST',
success: function(data) {
// ...
},
});
});
edit: Note contentype and process data
You can simply use this to upload files via Ajax...... submit input cannot be outside form element :)
2019 update:
html
<form class="fr" method='POST' enctype="multipart/form-data"> {% csrf_token %}
<textarea name='text'>
<input name='example_image'>
<button type="submit">
</form>
js
$(document).on('submit', '.fr', function(){
$.ajax({
type: 'post',
url: url, <--- you insert proper URL path to call your views.py function here.
enctype: 'multipart/form-data',
processData: false,
contentType: false,
data: new FormData(this) ,
success: function(data) {
console.log(data);
}
});
return false;
});
views.py
form = ThisForm(request.POST, request.FILES)
if form.is_valid():
text = form.cleaned_data.get("text")
example_image = request.FILES['example_image']
Use a hidden iframe and set your form's target to that iframe's name. This way, when the form is submitted, only the iframe will be refreshed.
Have an event handler registered for the iframe's load event to parse the response.
I have handled these in a simple code. You can download a working demo from here
For your case, these very possible. I will take you step by step how you can upload a file to the server using AJAX jquery.
First let's us create an HTML file to add the following form file element as shown below.
<form action="" id="formContent" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" >
<input type="file" name="file" required id="upload">
<button class="submitI" >Upload Image</button>
</form>
Secondly create a jquery.js file and add the following code to handle our file submission to the server
$("#formContent").submit(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
var formdata = new FormData(this);
$.ajax({
url: "ajax_upload_image.php",
type: "POST",
data: formdata,
mimeTypes:"multipart/form-data",
contentType: false,
cache: false,
processData: false,
success: function(){
alert("file successfully submitted");
},error: function(){
alert("okey");
}
});
});
});
There you are done . View more
Using FormData is the way to go as indicated by many answers. here is a bit of code that works great for this purpose. I also agree with the comment of nesting ajax blocks to complete complex circumstances. By including e.PreventDefault(); in my experience makes the code more cross browser compatible.
$('#UploadB1').click(function(e){
e.preventDefault();
if (!fileupload.valid()) {
return false;
}
var myformData = new FormData();
myformData.append('file', $('#uploadFile')[0].files[0]);
$("#UpdateMessage5").html("Uploading file ....");
$("#UpdateMessage5").css("background","url(../include/images/loaderIcon.gif) no-repeat right");
myformData.append('mode', 'fileUpload');
myformData.append('myid', $('#myid').val());
myformData.append('type', $('#fileType').val());
//formData.append('myfile', file, file.name);
$.ajax({
url: 'include/fetch.php',
method: 'post',
processData: false,
contentType: false,
cache: false,
data: myformData,
enctype: 'multipart/form-data',
success: function(response){
$("#UpdateMessage5").html(response); //.delay(2000).hide(1);
$("#UpdateMessage5").css("background","");
console.log("file successfully submitted");
},error: function(){
console.log("not okay");
}
});
});
I have implemented a multiple file select with instant preview and upload after removing unwanted files from preview via ajax.

Yes you can, just use javascript to get the file, making sure you read the file as a data URL. Parse out the stuff before base64 to actually get the base 64 encoded data and then if you are using php or really any back end language you can decode the base 64 data and save into a file like shown below
Javascript:
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onloadend = function ()
{
dataToBeSent = reader.result.split("base64,")[1];
$.post(url, {data:dataToBeSent});
}
reader.readAsDataURL(this.files[0]);
PHP:
file_put_contents('my.pdf', base64_decode($_POST["data"]));
Of course you will probably want to do some validation like checking which file type you are dealing with and stuff like that but this is the idea.
To get all your form inputs, including the type="file" you need to use FormData object.
you will be able to see the formData content in the debugger -> network ->Headers after you will submit the form.
var url = "YOUR_URL";
var form = $('#YOUR_FORM_ID')[0];
var formData = new FormData(form);
$.ajax(url, {
method: 'post',
processData: false,
contentType: false,
data: formData
}).done(function(data){
if (data.success){
alert("Files uploaded");
} else {
alert("Error while uploading the files");
}
}).fail(function(data){
console.log(data);
alert("Error while uploading the files");
});

to upload a file which is submitted by user as a part of form using jquery please follow the below code :
var formData = new FormData();
formData.append("userfile", fileInputElement.files[0]);
Then send the form data object to server.
We can also append a File or Blob directly to the FormData object.
data.append("myfile", myBlob, "filename.txt");
You can use method ajaxSubmit as follow :)
when you select a file that need upload to server, form be submit to server :)
$(document).ready(function () {
var options = {
target: '#output', // target element(s) to be updated with server response
timeout: 30000,
error: function (jqXHR, textStatus) {
$('#output').html('have any error');
return false;
}
},
success: afterSuccess, // post-submit callback
resetForm: true
// reset the form after successful submit
};
$('#idOfInputFile').on('change', function () {
$('#idOfForm').ajaxSubmit(options);
// always return false to prevent standard browser submit and page navigation
return false;
});
});
If you want to upload file using AJAX here is code which you can use for file uploading.
$(document).ready(function() {
var options = {
beforeSubmit: showRequest,
success: showResponse,
dataType: 'json'
};
$('body').delegate('#image','change', function(){
$('#upload').ajaxForm(options).submit();
});
});
function showRequest(formData, jqForm, options) {
$("#validation-errors").hide().empty();
$("#output").css('display','none');
return true;
}
function showResponse(response, statusText, xhr, $form) {
if(response.success == false)
{
var arr = response.errors;
$.each(arr, function(index, value)
{
if (value.length != 0)
{
$("#validation-errors").append('<div class="alert alert-error"><strong>'+ value +'</strong><div>');
}
});
$("#validation-errors").show();
} else {
$("#output").html("<img src='"+response.file+"' />");
$("#output").css('display','block');
}
}
Here is the HTML for Upload the file
<form class="form-horizontal" id="upload" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" action="upload/image'" autocomplete="off">
<input type="file" name="image" id="image" />
</form>
var dataform = new FormData($("#myform")[0]);
//console.log(dataform);
$.ajax({
url: 'url',
type: 'POST',
data: dataform,
async: false,
success: function(res) {
response data;
},
cache: false,
contentType: false,
processData: false
});
<input class="form-control cu-b-border" type="file" id="formFile">
<img id="myImg" src="#">
In js
<script>
var formData = new FormData();
formData.append('file', $('#formFile')[0].files[0]);
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: '/GetData/UploadImage',
data: formData,
processData: false, // tell jQuery not to process the data
contentType: false, // tell jQuery not to set contentType
success: function (data) {
console.log(data);
$('#myImg').attr('src', data);
},
error: function (xhr, ajaxOptions, thrownError) {
}
})
</script>
In controller
public ActionResult UploadImage(HttpPostedFileBase file)
{
string filePath = "";
if (file != null)
{
string path = "/uploads/Temp/";
if (!Directory.Exists(Server.MapPath("~" + path)))
{
Directory.CreateDirectory(Server.MapPath("~" + path));
}
filePath = FileUpload.SaveUploadedFile(file, path);
}
return Json(filePath, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
Here was an idea I was thinking of:
Have an iframe on page and have a referencer.
Have a form in which you move the input type file element to.
Form: A processing page AND a target of the FRAME.
The result will post to the iframe, and then you can just send the fetched data up a level to the image tag you want with something like:
data:image/png;base64,asdfasdfasdfasdfa
and the page loads.
I believe it works for me, and depending you might be able to do something like:
.aftersubmit(function(){
stopPropagation(); // or some other code which would prevent a refresh.
});
This is my code that it works
var formData = new FormData();
var files = $('input[type=file]');
for (var i = 0; i < files.length; i++) {
if (files[i].value == "" || files[i].value == null) {
return false;
}
else {
formData.append(files[i].name, files[i].files[0]);
}
}
var formSerializeArray = $("#Form").serializeArray();
for (var i = 0; i < formSerializeArray.length; i++) {
formData.append(formSerializeArray[i].name, formSerializeArray[i].value)
}
$.ajax({
type: 'POST',
data: formData,
contentType: false,
processData: false,
cache: false,
url: '/Controller/Action',
success: function (response) {
if (response.Success == true) {
return true;
}
else {
return false;
}
},
error: function () {
return false;
},
failure: function () {
return false;
}
});
$("#form-id").submit(function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
});

var formObj = $(this);
var formURL = formObj.attr("action");

servlet responce as "out.print("your responce");"
I am trying to pass an image and a title field value to PHP, I usually process file uploads straight with PHP using the $_FILES array, I am not sure how to create/pass this array using ajax to PHP.
My form:
<form role="form" name="updateProductForm" id="updateProductForm" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input name="imgOne" id="imgOne" type="file" title="Add Image">
<a class="btn btn-primary" name="updateProduct" id="updateProduct">Update Product</a></div>
</form>
And I am trying to use this to pass to PHP:
$('#updateProduct').on('click', function() {
try {
ajaxRequest = new XMLHttpRequest();
} catch (e) {
try {
ajaxRequest = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
} catch (e) {
try {
ajaxRequest = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
} catch (e) {
alert("Your browser broke!");
return false;
}
}
}
ajaxRequest.open("POST", "../Controller/ProductController.php", true);
ajaxRequest.setRequestHeader("Content-type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
ajaxRequest.send("title=" + $("#title").val() + "&imgOne=" + $("#imgOne"));
// Create a function that will receive data sent from the server
ajaxRequest.onreadystatechange = function(){
if(ajaxRequest.readyState == 4){
console.log(ajaxRequest);
}
}
});
In PHP I am trying this:
if (isset($_POST["edit"])) {
$id = $_POST["edit"];
$imgName = $_FILES["file"]["imgName"];
}

I did that in one of my project, and following code works for me.
Please do required modifications in code as your need.
My Form button:
<form name="upload_img" enctype="multipart/form-data" id="upload_img">
<input type="file" style="display:none" id="upload-image" name="upload-image"></input>
<button id="upload_image" type="button">Save</button>
</form>
My JQuery/Ajax :
$('#upload_image').click(function()
{
var form = new FormData(document.getElementById('upload_img'));
//append files
var file = document.getElementById('upload-image').files[0];
if (file) {
form.append('upload-image', file);
}
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "URL",
data: form,
cache: false,
contentType: false, //must, tell jQuery not to process the data
processData: false,
//data: $("#upload_img").serialize(),
success: function(data)
{
if(data == 1)
$('#img_msg').html("Image Uploaded Successfully");
else
$('#img_msg').html("Error While Image Uploading");
}
});
//alert('names');
});
You can use jQuery file upload plugin
$('#imgOne').change(function(){
$.ajaxFileUpload({
fileElementId: 'imgOne',
url: "../Controller/ProductController.php",
dataType: 'json',
success: function(response)
{
//Success Code Here
},
error: function()
{
//Error Code Here
}
});
});
First You need to Select image file through following line of html code
input type="file" id="image_to_upload"
After that you need to write the following jQuery code to catch this event.
jQuery.noConflict();
formdata = new FormData();
jQuery("#image_to_upload").on("change", function() {
var file = this.files[0];
if (formdata) {
formdata.append("image", file);
jQuery.ajax({
url: "destination_ajax_file.php",
type: "POST",
data: formdata,
processData: false,
contentType: false,
success:function(){}
});
}
});
In the destination ajax file you can access image by the following variable
print_r($_FILES);
