c# - Using "<input type="file" .... />" instead of asp:FileUpload -


i'm modifying existing asp.net project. original author erroneously tried create styled asp:fileupload setting visibility hidden , creating 2 custom styled browse , save buttons.

for security reason, ie not permit this. strategy instead try use input tags type="file", this example. if set input <input type="file" id="inputfile" /> how access/save file in code behind, inputfile.saveas("somefile.txt");? (in code behind) can inputfile.hasfile or there other analog of this?

as per recommendations i'm trying following:

             <td>                 enabled: <asp:checkbox id="checkbox2" runat="server" />    &nbsp;&nbsp;                 <div id="testfileuploader">>                    <input type="file" id="browserhidden" runat="server" />                    <div id="browservisible"><input type="text" id="filefield" /></div>                 </div>              </td> 

so, can generate random file name future upload, based on guid @ codebehind of aspx page:

httppostedfile fileposted = request.files["uploadfieldnamefromhtml"];  if (fileposted != null && fileposted.contentlength > 0) {     string filenameapplication = system.io.path.getfilename(fileposted.filename);     string fileextensionapplication = system.io.path.getextension(filenameapplication);      // generating random guid new file @ server uploaded file     string newfile = guid.newguid().tostring() + fileextensionapplication;     // getting valid server path save     string filepath = system.io.path.combine(server.mappath("uploads"), newfile);      if (filenameapplication != string.empty)     {         fileposted.saveas(filepath);     } } 

for request.files["uploadfieldnamefromhtml"] set id in html code here:

<input type='file' id='...' /> 

also, don't forget define runat="server" @ main form in aspx page, it's better set @ main form , don't forget enctype="multipart/form-data" parameter of <form>:

<body>     <form enctype="multipart/form-data" id="form1" runat="server">         <input type='file' id='uploadfieldnamefromhtml' /> ...
