I've inherited a rather old application, all forms are done 'old school' without any fancy JavaScript. Multiple forms allow users to upload or replace profile pics of themselves. Now they want to upgrade the site to allow users to use webcams (if available) to take a picture of themselves and upload that instead.

I've got all of the logic in place to take the picture and convert the image to a FileData object.

Question:

Instead of converting all of the forms to send via ajax (which would not be thaaaaat painful I guess...) Is there anyway I can just attach that FormData back into the form so it can be processed 'old school' style again? (Good ole' enctype='multipart/form-data)

  • i think it will help you dearly https://github.com/jhuckaby/webcamjs. Regarding formdata you can attach it as base64 check https://stackoverflow.com/questions/26667820/upload-a-base64-encoded-image-using-formdata – alexkarpen May 17 '22 at 20:24
  • Thanks but not looking for base64 - I'm trying to minimize having to change the backend server logic. – Jon Freynik May 17 '22 at 21:15
