The only way to submit files via AJAX is to submit the form to an iframe and have the page loaded after submission call some javascript functions in the parent window. I used to do this years ago before all the AJAX buzz for submitting changes and refreshing data, and it's still the only method for uploading files. The reason is security; you cannot give javascript access to file data on a person's hard drive.
Dojo creates an iframe and submits the form to it, according to that link you posted. Something could easily be created for Prototype to do the same thing, and in fact I might need such functionality in the near future. If I write something, I'll be sure to share it.
