Answer / nikhil
There is no way to upload file using ajax. 1 can use iframe
and upload files to give the feel of ajax file upload.
Many scripts and libraries are using this method, in their
ajax-file-upload plugins.

Answer / sushovan and joydip
At first u browse the file by
<input type="file" name="file1"> then u use a link ie:
<a href="#" onclick="upload()">upload</a>
then on the upload() function u use a framework named
prototype.js
u just import the file in javascript, use this file
u can send the file path to another page after complete ur
upload into that page this framework automatically return
into prev page with html response.
.... it may be possible by that way..

Answer / jay
reason why you cant (actually you can, if you specifically
set that option in Firefox) upload by just using AJAX is
that if it was possible, some malicious code could be
sending any files through ajax from your disk without your
knowledge, which would be a huge security issue.
isntead, you're using FORM posting for that.
