How to handle file upload with jquery validation

I am using the jquery validation plug开发者_运维百科in located here:

And I'm trying to find out if I can use jQuery's ajax somehow to work with file uploads because I have a form with a few inputs and text areas and a file upload file along with the form. What I'm wanting to do with the file upload is have it upload to a certain directory in my hosting.

I ended up doing away with the file upload this is solved.
