Basically i want to upload a file using jQuery
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(event) {
$('#form1').submit(function(event) {
event.preventDefault();
$.post('post.php',function(data){
$('#result').html(data);
});
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1">
<h3>Please input the XML:</h3>
<input id="file" type="file" name="file" /><br/>
<input id="submit" type="submit" value="Upload File"/>
</form>
<div id="result">call back result will appear here</div>
</body>
</html>
and my php 'post.php'
<?php
echo $file['tmp_name'];
?>

You cannot upload files using AJAX. You could use the jquery.form plugin which uses a hidden iframe:
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.js"></script>
<script src="http://malsup.github.com/jquery.form.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(event) {
$('#form1').ajaxForm(function(data) {
$('#result').html(data);
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" action="post.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<h3>Please input the XML:</h3>
<input id="file" type="file" name="file" /><br/>
<input id="submit" type="submit" value="Upload File"/>
</form>
<div id="result">call back result will appear here</div>
</body>
</html>
Also notice the enctype="multipart/form-data" on the form.
Another possibility is to use the HTML5 File API which allows you to achieve that assuming the client browser supports it.
