FileUpLoad Control - retrieving full pathname

When I use the FileUpLoadContr ol to select a file, I can only retrieve the
filename that was selected. I want to know how to retrieve the full
pathname of the filename selected.

Hi, Given a string representing the path to a file, what is the best way to get at the filename? Does the OS module provide a function to parse the path? or is it acceptable to split the string using '/' as delimiters and get the last 'word'. The reason I'm not entirely happy with that method is that it is platform specific. I would prefer to use a built in method if possible. Cheers,

All I'm interested in is the file name and path, I'm not performing any file transfer. I've put a fileupload control on the page to allow the user to specify the file. Now I want to push/pull the details to/from appsettings so the user doesn't have to browse to the file if it hasn't changed. However I can't set default...

The ASPX FileUpload control displays a TextBox along with a 'Browse...' Button. Setting the different properties of this control just reflects the changes in the TextBox but not the Button. For e.g. if the BackColor of a FileUpload control is set to blue, then only the TextBox color changes to blue but the BackColor of the Button doesn't change to blue. Or if the Font-Size of a FileUpload control is set to 15pt, then only the size of the...

Hello. I would like to give my user the option to browse his files (like the simple fileUpload control do) and after selecting the file (and when the fileUpload control hold in his text box the full path and file name) I want to press another button and get the path+file name as a string. I want to do this with out actually upload the file. I use the fileupload just for his browsing option.

Hi, I have a User control which has a fileupload control. With the requirements I placed the user control in a UpdatePanel of ASP.NET Ajax and the fileupload.postedfile.filename giving error. I read some articles that Ajax is not compatible with fileupload. I want to know the solution or workaround for this. Thanks

I know this has been addressed sortof. It's using the update panel with the fileupload control. I get how to use a postback trigger to do a full postbask.

I have tried dynamically adding a control via the RegisterPostBackControl when the validation is successful but I have to...
