Here's the relevant parts of the model: class Resource(models.Model): photo = ThumbnailerImageField(_("photo"), upload_to='photos', blank=True, null=True)
This works fine in admin and with regular form posts. Trying to use jquery.post in one situation to post a photo without suffering a page reload. With the regular post, the photo field returns like this (in form.cleaned_data): 'photo': <InMemoryUploadedFile: P1010058.JPG (image/jpeg)> And request.FILES is like this: <MultiValueDict: {u'photo': [<InMemoryUploadedFile: P1010058.JPG (image/jpeg)>]}> With the jquery post, photo is None and the MultiValueDict is empty. In both cases the form is set up with enctype="multipart/form-data", and the form is instantiated in the view with form = ResourceForm(request.POST, request.FILES) What am I doing wrong? Here's the javascript: $("#detailForm").submit(function(event) { event.preventDefault(); var $form = $( this ), url = $form.attr( 'action' ); var formData = $form.serialize(); saveResource(url, formData); }); function saveResource(url, formData) { notifySaving(); var jqxhr = $.post( url, formData, function( data ) { $('#detailModal').modal('hide'); notifySaved(); resourceSaved = true; }) .fail(function() { $('#detailModal').modal('hide'); notifyProblem(); resourceSaved = false; startRetrying(); } ); } -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
