If you don't want the URL to change, you need to use the post
method rather than a get.  Also since you want to use the same
PHP script, your action URL should also be the same.  You can
just use "#" as a shortcut.

Thus your <form> element's opening tag at a minimum should
look something like,

  <form
     action="#"
     method="post"
     enctype="multipart/form-data">
