I am fixing an e-mailing system using php and mysql and have hit a stumbling block. i have recently had to take on someone elses work and have fixed most of the problems they had created. I need to upload images and then display them on the newsletters that will be sent out.

the forms for entering the text and images must not be reloaded when the image is uploaded as all the entered information is not carried across to the new page. the code i am having trouble with is the upload side the page continues to be reloaded and all information is lost.

is there anyone who has successfully got this to work who could point me in the right direction.
is Ext.Ajax.request the best way for this or XMLHTTPRequest?
