Using HTML5 file uploads with AJAX and jQuery
When the form is submitted, catch the submission process and try to run the following code snippet for file upload −
// File 1 var myFile = document.getElementById('fileBox').files[0]; var reader = new FileReader(); reader.readAsText(file, 'UTF-8'); reader.onload = myFunc; function myFunc(event) { var res = event.target.result; var fileName = document.getElementById('fileBox').files[0].name; $.post('/myscript.php', { data: res, name: fileName }, continueSubmission); }
Then, on the server side (i.e. myscript.php) −
$data = $_POST['data']; $fileName = $_POST['name']; $myServerFile = time().$fileName; // Prevent overwriting $fp = fopen('/uploads/'.$myServerFile,'w'); fwrite($fp, $data); fclose($fp); $retData = array( "myServerFile" => $myServerFile ); echo json_encode($retData);
