Manipulate Client Computer's directories

[Guogang]

Is it possible to manipulate client computer's direcotries through an
ASP.NET page?

For example: user click "Down Load Package To Temporary Directory", then a
whole package with proper directory structure will be downloaded to client
computer's c:\temp directory.

Thanks,
Guogang

Hello Guogang,

No, this is not possible unless you use client-side code and have explicit
permissions to do so from the client-side. To allow this would violate
browser security.

HTH,

You cannot control WHERE a file downloads,
but you can certainly ALLOW the download of a file...
