I'm using Kendo Upload inside an ASP.NET WebForms page to upload a user picture (not multiple files, only one).

It have a Save button that sends the values of many fields. I would like to send the file together with the values. Is there any way to do it with Ajax? Or with a normal Postback? Can someone please explain me how to do it?

I can't put it working this way until today. I'm starting thinking that it's impossible with the Kendo Uploader...

As it turns out, this is done almost exactly the same way as any other form post. The example below is using MVC.

First off, make sure your form's enctype is set to enctype="multipart/form-data" . Example:
@using (Html.BeginForm("BeginUpload","Upload"FormMethod.Postnew { target="upload_target"id="uploadForm"
enctype="multipart/form-data"onsubmit="return beginUpload();"style="width:45%"})) { 

- The target is an iframe I have on the page that fetches upload status via ajax calls.

After you deal with saving your form's values in the view model, you can save the file(s) that were uploaded by accessing the Request.Files collection; there will be one entry in the collection for each file in your form.
 foreach(HttpPostedFileBase file in Request.Files) 
    file.SaveAs(file.FileName);

You will obviously want to change the file name to point to a path on your server, as well as various other checks on the uploaded file, but that's the basics of it.
