I'm trying to accomplish the following:
Upload a file to the application by submitting a form (enctype: multipart/form-data) to a JSP action which handles the rest (including writing the file to the disk, processing and returning some xml data about the upload).
Until recently, I was using this plugin: http://valums.com/ajax-upload/
This does not work well for two reasons:
- it breaks on Internet Explorer
- the code is written in half jquery, half native javascript and not in your usual plugin authoring form, which makes it harder to debug.
I've also looked at Uploadify ( http://www.uploadify.com/ ) but it takes a radically different approach which would require a lot of back-end changes.
Do you know any similar submit-form-in-hidden-iframe plugins that are cleaner / cross-browser compatible? Or alternative solutions that I'm missing?
Please note that I can't use a regular because of the specific requirements.
Thanks.
