I have a form in which i user jQuery file uploader
My form contains lot of other fields other than the profile picture the user uploads. I want to upload the profile picture by sending only profile picture parameters alone with ajax and show user the progress bar with upload status.
Here is the coffee script i use for this.
$('#user_edit_form').fileupload
url: '/users/files_upload'
type: 'POST'
add: (e, data)->
# e.target gives the form.
types = /(\.|\/)(gif|jpe?g|png)$/i
file = data.files[0]
# file type verification.
if types.test(file.type) || types.test(file.name)
data.progress_div = $('#' + data.fileInput.attr('id')).closest('.control-group').find('.upload_progress')
data.progress_div.show()
data.submit()
else
alert('The file you selected is not a gif, jpeg or png image file')
progress: (e, data)->
progress = parseInt(data.loaded / data.total * 100, 10)
data.progress_div.find('.bar').css('width', progress + '%')
this code sends all the fields in the form. I need help to send only the file fields as params. (i.e., nothing but serializing the file filed alone)
Thanks
