How to Send Formdata Objects With Ajax-Requests in Jquery

How to send FormData objects with Ajax-requests in jQuery?

I believe you could do it like this :

var fd = new FormData();    
fd.append( 'file', input.files[0] );

$.ajax({
  url: 'http://example.com/script.php',
  data: fd,
  processData: false,
  contentType: false,
  type: 'POST',
  success: function(data){
    alert(data);
  }
});

Notes:

• Setting processData to false lets you prevent jQuery from automatically transforming the data into a query string. See the docs for more info.

• Setting the contentType to false is imperative, since otherwise jQuery will set it incorrectly.

Ajax post FormData and the form

Try passing this to FormData Also, you were setting type twice.

var frm = $('#my_form');
frm.submit(function (e) {
  e.preventDefault(e);

  var formData = new FormData(this);

  $.ajax({
    async: true,
    type: frm.attr('method'),
    url: frm.attr('action'),
    data: formData,
    cache: false,
    processData: false,
    contentType: false,

    success: function (data) {
      console.log("success")
    },
    error: function(request, status, error) {
      console.log("error")
    }
  });
});

Send FormData object AND an additional parameter via ajax

Try:

var formData = new FormData();
formData.append('file', this.files[0]);
formData.append('CustomerId', 2);

/*
 note:: appending in form Data will give "csrf token mismatch error". 
 so better you make a input feild of type hidden with name = CustomerId 
 and value =  2 
*/ 

$.ajax({
   url: urlUploadProductsFile,
   type: 'POST',
   data: formData,
   cache: false,
   contentType: false,
   processData: false
}, 'json');

Sending multipart/formdata with jQuery.ajax

Starting with Safari 5/Firefox 4, it’s easiest to use the FormData class:

var data = new FormData();
jQuery.each(jQuery('#file')[0].files, function(i, file) {
    data.append('file-'+i, file);
});

So now you have a FormData object, ready to be sent along with the XMLHttpRequest.

jQuery.ajax({
    url: 'php/upload.php',
    data: data,
    cache: false,
    contentType: false,
    processData: false,
    method: 'POST',
    type: 'POST', // For jQuery < 1.9
    success: function(data){
        alert(data);
    }
});

It’s imperative that you set the contentType option to false, forcing jQuery not to add a Content-Type header for you, otherwise, the boundary string will be missing from it.
Also, you must leave the processData flag set to false, otherwise, jQuery will try to convert your FormData into a string, which will fail.

You may now retrieve the file in PHP using:

$_FILES['file-0']

(There is only one file, file-0, unless you specified the multiple attribute on your file input, in which case, the numbers will increment with each file.)

Using the FormData emulation for older browsers

var opts = {
    url: 'php/upload.php',
    data: data,
    cache: false,
    contentType: false,
    processData: false,
    method: 'POST',
    type: 'POST', // For jQuery < 1.9
    success: function(data){
        alert(data);
    }
};
if(data.fake) {
    // Make sure no text encoding stuff is done by xhr
    opts.xhr = function() { var xhr = jQuery.ajaxSettings.xhr(); xhr.send = xhr.sendAsBinary; return xhr; }
    opts.contentType = "multipart/form-data; boundary="+data.boundary;
    opts.data = data.toString();
}
jQuery.ajax(opts);

Create FormData from an existing form

Instead of manually iterating the files, the FormData object can also be created with the contents of an existing form object:

var data = new FormData(jQuery('form')[0]);

Use a PHP native array instead of a counter

Just name your file elements the same and end the name in brackets:

jQuery.each(jQuery('#file')[0].files, function(i, file) {
    data.append('file[]', file);
});

$_FILES['file'] will then be an array containing the file upload fields for every file uploaded. I actually recommend this over my initial solution as it’s simpler to iterate over.

Send form data with jquery ajax json

here is a simple one

here is my test.php for testing only

<?php

// this is just a test
//send back to the ajax request the request

echo json_encode($_POST);

here is my index.html

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>

<head>

</head>
<body>

<form id="form" action="" method="post">
Name: <input type="text" name="name"><br>
Age: <input type="text" name="email"><br>
FavColor: <input type="text" name="favc"><br>
<input id="submit" type="button" name="submit" value="submit">
</form>




<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
    $(document).ready(function(){
        // click on button submit
        $("#submit").on('click', function(){
            // send ajax
            $.ajax({
                url: 'test.php', // url where to submit the request
                type : "POST", // type of action POST || GET
                dataType : 'json', // data type
                data : $("#form").serialize(), // post data || get data
                success : function(result) {
                    // you can see the result from the console
                    // tab of the developer tools
                    console.log(result);
                },
                error: function(xhr, resp, text) {
                    console.log(xhr, resp, text);
                }
            })
        });
    });

</script>
</body>
</html>

Both file are place in the same directory

formData object not working with jquery AJAX post?

When you're sending an ajax request via jQuery and you want to send FormData you don't need to use JSON.stringify on this FormData. Also when you're sending file the content type must be multipart/form-data including boundry - something like this multipart/form-data; boundary=----WebKitFormBoundary0BPm0koKA

So to send FormData including some file via jQuery ajax you need to:

• Set data to the FormData without any modifications.
• Set processData to false (Lets you prevent jQuery from automatically transforming the data into a query string).
• Set the contentType to false (This is needed because otherwise jQuery will set it incorrectly).

Your request should look like this:

var formData = new FormData();

formData.append('name', dogName);
// ... 
formData.append('file', document.getElementById("dogImg").files[0]);


$.ajax({
    type: "POST",
    url: "/foodoo/index.php?method=insertNewDog",
    data: formData,
    processData: false,
    contentType: false,
    success: function(response) {
        console.log(response);
    },
    error: function(errResponse) {
        console.log(errResponse);
    }
});

Using FormData object in jQuery ajax request makes page redirect

The form data still find its way to the server but now the page redirects to the page in the url. I cannot figure out why at all.

In the first handler you are using:

form.submit((event) => {

This is the .submit() method to handle the

.on( "submit", handler )

In your second fragment, instead you are using:

form.onsubmit((event) => {

The onsubmit is not a jQuery method hence your problem.

A second issue is related to this line:

let formData = new FormData(this);

Change it to:

let formData = new FormData(event.target);

The this keyword in your function context is not the current form but the default window object.

Send FormData and String Data Together Through JQuery AJAX?

var fd = new FormData();
var file_data = $('input[type="file"]')[0].files; // for multiple files
for(var i = 0;i<file_data.length;i++){
    fd.append("file_"+i, file_data[i]);
}
var other_data = $('form').serializeArray();
$.each(other_data,function(key,input){
    fd.append(input.name,input.value);
});
$.ajax({
    url: 'test.php',
    data: fd,
    contentType: false,
    processData: false,
    type: 'POST',
    success: function(data){
        console.log(data);
    }
});

Added a for loop and changed .serialize() to .serializeArray() for object reference in a .each() to append to the FormData.
