How to correctly send binary data via XHttpRequest in webkit?

Question

JavaScript

The problem is that in Chromium or Opera there is no sendAsBinary (only send) method on the XHR object. As a result, everything loads correctly in the firelis, and broken files arrive in the lame-legged and crooper, and instead of Unicode characters in the file name - various gibberish.

Code snippet:

self._xhr.open('POST', self.params.url, true);

var boundary = 'xxxxxxxxx';
self._xhr.setRequestHeader('Content-Type', 'multipart/form-data, boundary='+boundary);
self._xhr.setRequestHeader('Cache-Control', 'no-cache');
self._xhr.setRequestHeader('Pragma', 'no-cache');
self._xhr.setRequestHeader('Expires', '0');

var body = '';

// the file
body += '--' + boundary + '\r\n';
body += 'Content-Disposition: form-data; charset: utf-8; accept-charset: utf-8'+
  '; name="'+ self.params.fileFieldName +'"'+
  '; filename="'+ unescape(encodeURIComponent( self.params.file.name )) +'"\r\n';
body += 'Content-Type: application/octet-stream\r\n\r\n';
body += self._reader.result + '\r\n'; // self._reader is instanceof FileReader

// custom data
for (var key in self._toPost) {
  body += '--' + boundary + '\r\n';
  body += 'Content-Disposition: form-data; name="'+ key +'"\r\n';
  body += 'Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8\r\n\r\n';
  body += self._toPost[key].toString() + '\r\n';
}

body += '--' + boundary + '--';

if (self._xhr.sendAsBinary) {
  // firefox
  self._xhr.sendAsBinary(body);
} else {
  // chrome (W3C spec.)
  self._xhr.send(body);
}

How to act in such a situation? Thank you.

Found a solution to an alternative implementation of sendAsBinary .

Is the title set? There is a line like this in PHPheader("Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8");
