Summary: Misleading encoding in FormData objects created on HTML Forms Product: WebAppsWG Version: unspecified Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: XHR 2.0 AssignedTo: ann...@opera.com ReportedBy: wfernandom2...@gmail.com QAContact: member-webapi-...@w3.org CC: m...@w3.org, public-webapps@w3.org Using xhr_object.send(new FormData(html_form_object)) allows to submit files using xhr instead of using hidden iframes. However, currently, that will send utf-8 encoded data instead of the html_form_object's encoding. This behavior makes hard to web pages to maintain compatibility with older browsers that require hidden iframes and use other encodings than utf-8. PHP, for instance, uses the iso-8859-1 encoding by default.
