Question

Here is my HTML form:

Answer 1

You can use a FormData object which is safe and fast:

// Store the file object when input field is changed
$scope.contentChanged = function(event){
    if (!event.files.length)
        return null;

    $scope.content = new FormData();
    $scope.content.append('fileUpload', event.files[0]); 
    $scope.$apply();
}

// Upload the file over HTTP
$scope.upload = function(){
    $http({
        method: 'POST', 
        url: '/remote/url',
        headers: {'Content-Type': undefined },
        data: $scope.content,
    }).success(function(response) {
        // Uploading complete
        console.log('Request finished', response);
    });
}
