Try:

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('#fileInput').uploadify({
        'uploader'  : 'uploadify.swf',
        'script'    : 'upload.php',
        'cancelImg' : 'cancel.png',
        'auto'      : true,
        'folder'    : '/your_folder_to_upload',
        'onOpen' : function(){
        $('#file_upload').uploadifySettings(
            'scriptData', 
            {'userInput':$("#userInput").val()}
            );
