/// It is not possible to upload files using the browser's XMLHttpRequest
/// object. So the jQuery Form Plugin uses a hidden iframe element. For a
/// JSON response, a ContentType of application/json will cause bad browser
/// behavior so the content-type must be text/html. Browsers can behave badly
/// if you return JSON with ContentType of text/html. So you must surround
/// the JSON in textarea tags. All this is handled nicely in the browser
/// by the jQuery Form Plugin. But we need to overide the default behavior
/// of the JsonResult class in order to achieve the desired result.
