dojo or jquery javascript send binary file using ajax

I want to upload a static file on my drive like C:\someplace\somefile.doc THe file and location is always the same.

I need to do an ajax POST to a url to send this file using only javascript...

Could someone provide some idea or example how this could be done using dojo or jquery...is this possible?

I seen examples where it uses a form...but that is not I want.

thanks

MDN has an article on how to do it:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Using_files_from_web_applications

Check 'Handling the upload process for a file'.

They don't use jQuery but the new HTML5 File AP and XmlHttpRequest 2.

you cant upload files from your local computer using javascript without using the built in upload function (the form).
