Multile File upload, I give up.

[eluser]mabright[/eluser]
I am almost done with my internal message system but I am stuck on attaching a file to a message. I have a view called compose, where a user composes a internal message. I am using the JQuery Mutile File upload java-script and this works fine, I can see the files on the screen as I add them.

In my messages controller, method compose calls methos "send" when the message is submitted. From here I call do_upload and then send the message but no file is uploaded to my server and no error message is returned.

Form

Code:

<div id="mc_container">
    &lt;form method="post" action="&lt;?php echo current_url().'/send'; ?&gt;" enctype="multipart/form-data" /&gt;
        <div id="msg_compose">
                <ol>
                    <li>
                        &lt;?php echo validation_errors(); ?&gt;
                        <p class="error_text">&lt;?php echo $this->session->flashdata('message'); ?&gt;</p>
                    </li>
                    <li>
                        <label class="label_required">From:</label>
                        <p>&lt;?php echo $this->session->userdata('username'); ?&gt;</p>
