Cannot upload image using jquerymobile

Question

I have a simple dialog box:

    <div data-role="dialog" id="uploadImage" data-title="Upload Image" data-needs-auth="true">
    <div data-role="header" data-position="fixed" data-theme="b">
    <a href="#subMenu" data-icon="back" data-iconpos="notext"></a>
    <h1>Upload Image</h1>
    </div><!-- /header -->           
    <div data-role="content">                       
    <form name=uploadForm method=post enctype="multipart/form-data" action="uploadbi.php" data-ajax="false">
    <input type=file name=filename>
    <input type=hidden name=MAX_FILE_SIZE value=8000000>
    <input type="submit" value="Upload Image" data-theme="a" data-inline="true">
    </form>
    </div>
    </div>
    </div>

enter image description here

The problem is that it does not pass the filename field. From Firebug:

Post Parameters
application/x-www-form-urlencoded
MAX_FILE_SIZE   8000000

Source
MAX_FILE_SIZE=8000000&seid=6e540f68067707233241eb170ca83c43

This is running under Firefox and I verified that it also fails under Chrome. It's been forever since I've dealt with file uploads in a form. What am I missing?

Last month I had a similar problem. Try to add data-ajax="false" on your form definition and see if that will help.

For more information, you could check this link.

Okay. Not a problem. It's been so long since I dealt with the file uploads that I forgot that the filename is NOT passed in the $_POST array (where I was looking) but the $_FILES array.

Yes, look at my last comment. I was referring to the wrong variable.
