I have a simple file upload form that works properlly only when when I remove the ajax script from the form html file. With out on submission I am taken to a blank page wiht the proper error or success message (It validates like it should).
If I include it, it bypasses all my arguments and skips right to the last error. Saying there You must upload a file to continue.
Is there something I am missing in my ajax file? I can't figure out why it skips all my validation.
Thanks for any help you can give
