Webform with "input type=file" for file upload
Bill Murray
button webcontrol, and install the IIS posting server, will it work? Anybody
have a complete working example in WebForms? Does the .net framework provide
any other way for file upload?
I basically need to upload a file, and I would prefer the user interface to
be on a webform.

the filestream then. Oh ya, you'll need your form to have
"enctype=multipart/form-data" or something like that. The control is called
HtmlInputFileControl I think, and the .NET docs on it are great.

My name is Jun Su. Thank you for using Microsoft Community Support.
The following is a sample. This example demonstrates how to use the
HtmlInputFile control to create a simple file upload scenario. For this
example to work properly, you need to create a directory called TEMP on
your C: drive.
[Visual Basic]
<html>
<head>
<script language="VB" runat="server">
Sub Button1_Click(Source As Object, e As EventArgs)
If Text1.Value = "" Then
Span1.InnerHtml = "Error: you must enter a file name"
Return
End If
If Not (File1.PostedFile Is Nothing) Then
Try
File1.PostedFile.SaveAs(("c:\temp\" + Text1.Value))
Span1.InnerHtml = "File uploaded successfully to
<b>c:\\temp\\" & _
Text1.Value & "</b> on the Web server"
Catch exc As Exception
Span1.InnerHtml = "Error saving file <b>c:\\temp\\" & _
Text1.Value & "</b><br>" &
exc.ToString()
End Try
End If
End Sub 'Button1_Click
</script>
</head>
<body>
<h3><font face="Verdana">HtmlInputFile Sample</font></h3>
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" runat="server">
Select File to Upload:
<input id="File1"
type="file"
runat="server">
<p>
Save as filename (no path):
<input id="Text1"
type="text"
runat="server">
<p>
<span id=Span1
style="font: 8pt verdana;"
runat="server" />
<p>
<input type=button
id="Button1"
value="Upload"
OnServerClick="Button1_Click"
runat="server">
</form>
</body>
</html>
I hope this helps. If you have any questions, please reply to this post.

was looking for.
I must admit though that it is frustrating to have all this clearly spelled
out in MSDN, but when I search for something like "webform file upload",
there are no results. I searched using various flavors of keywords and never
got anything that pointed me to the htmlinputfile control. It seems like
some people say about the dictionary, you have to know what you are looking
for.....
thx again

until you find what you are looking for.
If you know the name, then the Index is great. Use search when you have
100% no clue, and then try as few words as possible (like input file or
type=file or something like that).
