Although I have not found an authoritarive source, the "problem" is that Javascript cannot access files on the desktop, the browser must do it. Thus, not supporting inout type=file is not a jQuery problem. It is possible to code around this, namely using iframe (any other?). Someone more knowledgable may confirm this. Some interesting solutions are (untested): http://valums.com/ajax-upload/ - a dedicated javascript script library http://trentrichardson.com/2009/06/05/meet-jquery-iframer/ - a jQuery plugin http://www.webtoolkit.info/ajax-file-upload.html - a 1Kb Javascript file Anyone has experience with these or other solutions?
