Menu
I have an update profile page.
It has three forms, it uses a get request to show any one form.
Like update_profile.php?type=profile lets the user edit his profile, update_profile.php?type=settings lets the user edit his account settings.
Type: profile has a file input, I want the users to be able to upload without page refresh. Now this cant be done using ajax, so I will need a workaround. I've tried the iframe method, xhr2 method and html5 + ajax method which someone posted on stackoverflow.
So if someone would be kind to explain things to me in detailed steps I would appreciate that. Here is my html:
<script type='text/javascript'>
function nouser() {
$().toastmessage('showToast', {
text : 'The user does not exist',
sticky : true,
position : 'middle-center',
type : 'error',
closeText: '',
close : function () {
console.log("toast is closed ...");
}
});
}
</script>

Here is the jQuery code I normally use to submit forms:
$(function(){
$('form[name=update_stuff]').on("submit", function(e){
e.preventDefault();
$.ajax({
url: 'process.php',
type: 'POST',
data: $(this).serialize(),
success: function(data){
$('#emptydiv').html(data);
}
});
});
});
I use the $_FILES in php to get the file name and verify its extension and size server side, so i need the information in that. How can this be done? Also would i need to change the form name for updating profile and write a different code for it than the other forms in the same page?
