Re: Image input missing from POST request

Hi,

This is probably not a Django issue, but just trying my luck.

I have an input field corresponding to a Django ImageField in a Django template. Rendered, the HTML looks like:

<form action="/accounts/username/"         method="post"         id="profile_form"        enctype="multipart/form-data">  </form>  ... (other input fields and elements)  <input form="profile_form" id="id_profile_pic" name="profile_pic" type="file" />

The corresponding View is an UpdateView. I found request.FILES to be empty and request.cleaned_data to contain 'profile_pic': None.

I used firebug to track the POST data. It contained other fields but not profile_pic.

Can anyone say why the file does not get uploaded? I've posted this question to StakOverflow as well, in case someone wants reputation points.

Thanks,
Abhishek Batra

The input field is outside the closing </form> tag so would not be uploaded as part of the form.
