Upload file using iFrame for IE9

Question

Html:

<form id="formLogo">
<input type="file" id="logo" name="logo" accept="image/x-png, image/gif, image/jpeg" />
</form>

javascript:

  var myForm = new FormData();
  myForm .append("file", $("#logo").files[0]);
  myForm .append("type", "company");
  myForm .append("accountId", "3124234");
  $.ajax({
      url: '/efrcetrdmbo/app/file/upload',
      data: myFormData,
      dataType: 'text',
      processData: false,
      contentType: false,
      type: 'POST',
      success: function (data) {
          alert("sucess");
      }
  });

FormData is not supported in IE9. I want to use iFrame to upload file and some other data with it.

Instead of having the iframe in html, creating it before upload and than deleting.

Providing correct url, files are uploaded.

JS:

function fileUpload(form, action_url) {
    var iframe = document.createElement("iframe");
    iframe.setAttribute("id", "frame");
    iframe.setAttribute("name", "frame");
    iframe.setAttribute("width", "0");
    iframe.setAttribute("height", "0");
    iframe.setAttribute("frameborder", "0");

    form.parentNode.appendChild(iframe);

    iframeId = document.getElementById("frame");

    var eventHandler = function () {

        if (iframeId.detachEvent) iframeId.detachEvent("onload", eventHandler);
        else iframeId.removeEventListener("load", eventHandler, false);

        if (iframeId.contentDocument) {
            content = iframeId.contentDocument.body.innerHTML;
        } else if (iframeId.contentWindow) {
            content = iframeId.contentWindow.document.body.innerHTML;
        } else if (iframeId.document) {
            content = iframeId.document.body.innerHTML;
        }

        setTimeout('iframeId.parentNode.removeChild(iframeId)', 200);
    }

    if (iframeId.addEventListener) iframeId.addEventListener("load", eventHandler, true);
    if (iframeId.attachEvent) iframeId.attachEvent("onload", eventHandler);

    form.setAttribute("target", "frame");
    form.setAttribute("action", action_url);
    form.setAttribute("method", "post");

    form.submit();
}

Html:

<form>
    <input type="file" name="file" /></br>
    <input type="button" value="upload" onClick="fileUpload(this.form,'url'); return false;" >
</form>
