Send multipart/formdata with jQuery.ajax in IE

Question

Is there a way to do the following solution in Internet Explorer? (IE7 and up)

link: Sending multipart/formdata with jQuery.ajax

The solution code works great in every browser but IE.

Answer 1

No, you can't use jQuery.ajax to upload files and FormData isn't supported by IE unfortunately.

Check out the Uploadify jQuery plugin to upload files via ajax. You can also use jQuery Form Plugin to upload files via ajax.

Answer 2

Unfortunately, IE doesn't support the FormData API yet. However, you can achieve something similar using any number of jQuery AJAX form post plugins, such as this one.
