Barricades,
The idea of firing of an ajax request (which means your existing page does
not get reloaded) to upload a file and have the files path returned is
relatively simple and I'm sure you will be able to modify any of the
existing plugins to do this, you just need to get a grip on how to use
javascript and what happens when you fire an ajax call.
What you need to be able to do is debug what's happening with your script.
1. Is the js file being loaded?
2. Is the onChange event bring triggered? (try a simple alert('The field
has changed');)
1. If so, is it then firing an ajax call to your controller/action
1. At this point you should be using FireBug or something similar
to see what the ajax request is sending and receiving, but all you
want is
for your controller action to process the file and send back the
image's
url (which all decent upload scrips should make available)
