Download image using ajax and php

Question

I want to use ajax to upload an image. In this module:

• When you click browseand select an image, it will be downloaded and displayed over the file field.
• After adding the name and description and pressing the button, the image will be shown below, and the top field of the image will be empty.

Answer 1

You cannot upload files through AJAX. You need to work with an IFRAME or Flash-based bootloader.

Answer 2

In fact, you can upload images using the ajax function in jQuery, at least on the latest version of chrome.

HTML:

<form action="/" enctype="multipart/form-data" method="post" accept-charset="utf-8">
     <input type="file" name="image"/>
     <button type="submit">
</form>

JS:

$("form").submit(function(){
    var formData = new FormData($(this)[0]);
    $.ajax({
       url: window.location.pathname,
       type: 'POST',
       data: formData,
       async: false,
       cache: false,
       contentType: false,
       processData: false,
       success: function (data) {
              alert(data);
       }
    }); 
    return false;
});

// get the form, and the results area
var form = document.forms['image-upload'], results = By.id('upload-results');

listener.add(form, 'submit', function(e) {
    e.preventDefault();
    results.innerHTML = 'Uploading...';
    fileUpload(this, 'server.php' /* really anything */, function(data) {
