I haven't seen much discussion on this yet here so I thought I'd bring it up.
Kyle Maxwell has a workaround plugin for the problem of form_tag_remote with multipart file uploads:
http://svn.kylemaxwell.com/form_remote_upload/trunk/
To those unfamiliar with the hack, it involves using a hidden iframe that's posted to via a regular form submit (as opposed to the usual form_remote_tag Ajax.Request method).
The problem is that any resulting _javascript_ sent back via that kind of call, even if eval'd somehow, gets eval'd inside the the context of the hidden iframe, as opposed to the main page (where it would be much more useful).
I guess I was just wondering if:
A) Anyone had come up with a clever solution to this problem, such that resulting _javascript_ could still be eval'd in the page context (as opposed to the hidden iframe's)?
and
B) If Anything like this would ever be considered for rails core?
Thanks,
