File Input - GET instead of POST?

Hello all,

I have a form with a file input in it. All the inputs will be a POST to my server action like normal. Except there is one caveat. I need the file input to upload its file to a different table before submitting the form. The reason being is that I need to process the file and return data to be POSTed with the rest of the form inputs.

The value in the file input being updated triggers the server action without submitting the form (this part works). The problem is I cannot figure out how to use the file input as a GET into the server connect module.

Basically, everything is working, except it is not sending the actual file to my server action.
