Is there a plugin to get jQuery.ajax to submit multipart/form-data?

I need this so I can submit a subset of form controls that contain non-ASCII text.

The solution with an iframe element won't work for me because it submits the entire form; I only want to submit a subset of the controls.

I know that I can build a multipart/form-data string myself, but it seems that this must have been done before...

Update: As of version 3.02 (which came out early 2012), the jquery.form plugin now handles ajax file submits much more friendlierly. Check it.

I would recommend using jQuery and the Form plugin: http://malsup.com/jquery/form/#api

You can use the fieldSerialize() method to submit only a subset of the form and iframe:true option to make it work with submitting files, etc.

Hope that works for you!
