yeah, unfortunately you are both right... :-|

In fact I was afraid to receive this answer...

Anyway, how can I upload the image just with js and without submitting
the form?

jQuery standard function ($.ajax) does not seem to allow a file/image
as a file type...

I also looked to some plugins and they allow just xml,json...

Have you got any idea about what I can use?

Thanks,
Andrea
