Ext lib dialog and file upload controls

Question

I have a dialog containing a file upload control. When the form is submitted within the dialog everything is being saved correctly except the file that was selected. I suspect the dialog to be the cause of this.

Is there a property I have to set to enable it or is there some sort of work around?

I think this article will answer your question.

In short: the dialog uses a HTTP GET request to send data back to the server and thus can't include attachments. The article describes a workaround which you might be able to use.
