Skip file from Javascript download in PHP

I am working on a script to allow the user to upload a file and see the download status, and the file is then saved on the server.

The problem is that I cannot use php api. So I decided to upload the file using javascript, where I can easily get the download status, but then I want to transfer the file to php and save it.

Is it possible?

This is the javascript code to download.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head >
<title>Upload Files using XMLHttpRequest</title>

<script type="text/javascript">
    function fileSelected() {
        var file = document.getElementById('fileToUpload').files[0];
        if (file) {
            var fileSize = 0;
            if (file.size > 1024 * 1024)
                fileSize = (Math.round(file.size * 100 / (1024 * 1024)) / 100).toString() + 'MB';
            else
                fileSize = (Math.round(file.size * 100 / 1024) / 100).toString() + 'KB';

            document.getElementById('fileName').innerHTML = 'Name: ' + file.name;
            document.getElementById('fileSize').innerHTML = 'Size: ' + fileSize;
            document.getElementById('fileType').innerHTML = 'Type: ' + file.type;
        }
    }

    function uploadFile() {
        var fd = new FormData();
        fd.append("fileToUpload", document.getElementById('fileToUpload').files[0]);
        var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();
        xhr.upload.addEventListener("progress", uploadProgress, false);
        xhr.addEventListener("load", uploadComplete, false);
        xhr.addEventListener("error", uploadFailed, false);
        xhr.addEventListener("abort", uploadCanceled, false);
        xhr.open("POST", "UploadHandler.ashx");
        xhr.send(fd);
    }

    function uploadProgress(evt) {
        if (evt.lengthComputable) {
            var percentComplete = Math.round(evt.loaded * 100 / evt.total);
            document.getElementById('progressNumber').innerHTML = percentComplete.toString() + '%';
            document.getElementById('prog').value = percentComplete;
        }
        else {
            document.getElementById('progressNumber').innerHTML = 'unable to compute';
        }
    }

    function uploadComplete(evt) {
        /* This event is raised when the server send back a response */
        alert(evt.target.responseText);
    }

    function uploadFailed(evt) {
        alert("There was an error attempting to upload the file.");
    }

    function uploadCanceled(evt) {
        alert("The upload has been canceled by the user or the browser dropped the connection.");
    }
</script>

        <label for="fileToUpload">
            Select a File to Upload</label>

I have a gist . It uses xhr.send(FormData)and shows minimal code to process a file in PHP.

AJAX PHP, , .., , , . , ?

?

:

Javascript:

// xhr
var http = new XMLHttpRequest();
var url = "file_handler.php";
var file_data = "name=mypic.jpg&size=123&othe=etc";
http.open("POST", url, true);

// headers
http.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
http.setRequestHeader("Content-length", file_data.length);
http.setRequestHeader("Connection", "close");

http.onreadystatechange = function() {
    if(http.readyState == 4 && http.status == 200) {
        alert(http.responseText);
    }
}

http.send(file_data);

file_handler.php:

// file data
$file_data = $_POST['file_data'];

// working on the file
$temp_dir = 'usr/upload/';
$new_dir = 'usr/photos/';

// new unique name
$new_name = time() . '_' . $file_data['name'];

// copy?
if (copy($temp_dir . $file_data['name'], $new_dir . $new_name)) {
    unlink($temp_dir . $file_data['name']);
}

// rename?
rename($temp_dir . $file_data['name'], $temp_dir . $new_name);

// delete old file?
unlink($temp_dir . $file_data['name']);

// do whatever else needed here ...
// echo some JSON data to interact with your client-side JS code, maybe ...
