<asp:FileUpload >

1 New Member
Forgive me if this has been posted but I could not find an answer. I am using <asp:FileUplo ad ID="FileUpload1 " runat="server" /> to allow a user to select a file from their computer. I need is the Fully Qualified Path in order to attach it to an e-mail. When I use an older version of IE PostedFile.File Name returns the entire path but in Firefox it only returns the filename(includ ing extension) Does anyone know how to obtain the fully qualified path from the file the user has selected. Or have any other ideas of how to obtain it (other than having them type it manually). Thanks in advance.

This is a known problem with Firefox and there is no quick fix, but my suggestion would be to include some JavaScript on the upload / submit button that coppies the upload value (full path) to a hidden field so you can get it on PostBack.

let me know how you get on :)

p.s. i think your the same guy as on asp.net forums, have you not seen it or not a valid solution?

Would it be possible to access the file CONTENT in codebehind for a standard: <input id="htmlFile" type="file" /> Then in codebehind: foreach (string keyName in System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request.Form.Keys) { //i can see keyName = "htmlFile" here as well as the "c:/myfile.txt" for example

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
