There has already been a discussion on extending XMLHttpRequest.send() to take a File object. Could we also consider enhancing it further to support sending multiple files, like a FileList from the drag and drop. We could make XMLHttpRequest.send() take a FileList object and let the browser add multipart boundary separators automatically. Or, the other simpler way, thanks to Darin's suggestion, is to extend XMLHttpRequest.send() to take an array of items. Each of item could be either a string or a file reference strictly. The web application is responsible to generate the multipart enevelop like the following: var payload = new Array; payload.push(header1); payload.push(file1); payload.push(footer1); ... xhr.send(payload); How do you guys think about these approaches? Thanks, Jian
