File attachement with AJAX

[mm-tom]

I'm having trouble receiving attachments when using AJAX form submission.

I'm passing the form data through with:

var data = new FormData(this);

Because serialize() won't work on file fields, but unfortunately this still isn't working (email is sent, attachment ignored).

Any ideas?

I'm not sure there is a great way to submit file uploads and post data in the same Ajax request, unfortunately. What we came up with for Craft's Get Help widget was, we just post the form to a hidden iframe, rather than submit an actual Ajax request.

OK! Thanks :)
