I need to create dynamically an HTML form in jQuery, and when i click the submit button, then i send the form datas via Ajax to the 'add_sw.php' which is process them.
But my problem is that this PHP script cant access the PHP $_FILES variable, so that is empty..
Here is the js relevant js codes:
<script type="text/javascript">
$("body").on("click", "#submit", function() {
var frm = $('#sw_add');
frm.submit(function (ev) {
$.ajax({
type: frm.attr('method'),
url: frm.attr('action'),
data: frm.serialize(),
success: function (data) {
alert('ok');
}
});
ev.preventDefault();
});
});
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$("body").on("change", "select", function() {
var tag = $("<div></div>");
var content = "<form id='sw_add' action='add_sw.php' method='post' enctype='multipart/form-data'>";
content += "<input type='text' name='sw_name'>";
content += "<label for='file'>Fájl:</label>";
content += "<input type='file' name='file' size='40'>";
content += "<textarea rows='4' cols='50' name='sw_comment'></textarea>";
content += "<div class='buttons'><button id='submit' type='submit'>Save</button></div>";
content += "</form>";
tag.html(content).dialog({title:'Add new software', modal:false, width:500, height:360}).dialog('open');
});
</script>
And the beginning the PHP script:
<?php
$sw_name = $_REQUEST['sw_name'];
$sw_file = $_FILES['file']['name'];
$sw_comment = $_REQUEST['sw_comment'];
// process the form datas...
?>
My problem is that the '$sw_file' variable is empty, i do not get the uploaded file name. Why?
