How to send FormData objects with Ajax-requests in jQuery? [duplicate]

Answer 1

JavaScript:

function submitForm() {
    var data1 = new FormData($('input[name^="file"]'));
    $.each($('input[name^="file"]')[0].files, function(i, file) {
        data1.append(i, file);
    });

    $.ajax({
        url: "employee/dashboard2/test2",
        type: "POST",
        data: data1,
        enctype: 'multipart/form-data',
        processData: false, // tell jQuery not to process the data
        contentType: false // tell jQuery not to set contentType
    }).done(function(data) {
        console.log("PHP Output:");
        console.log(data);
    });
    return false;
}

PHP:

public function upload_file() {
    foreach($_FILES as $key) {
        $name = time().$key['name'];
        $path = 'upload/'.$name;
        @move_uploaded_file($key['tmp_name'], $path);
    }
}
