Andy, Yes, I am having the exact same problem. When a form is in a Ajax UI element (like cflayout and cfdiv) it is submitted asynchronous. The encoding type is set to application/x-www-form-urlencoded and it needs to be multipart/form-data. According to Ray Camden there is no way around this and it is not possible to use cffile to upload a file asynchronous.
I have had some suggestions to use a JavaScript or a flash based upload but I have not had a chance to try anything. I think that if you try to use <cfwindow> you will have the same problem because it is still part of the page and will submit asynchronous. I think it is kind of crazy to think that with CF8 we have these new tags to help with UI development (like cflayout and cfdiv) but you cannot upload a file when using them. I understand that it is because it is asynchronous, but I think there should be some way to do it.
