htmlInputFile

[Skwish]

Hi,

I have a page with a htmlInputFile that is working fine. However, if I go
to another page, and then go back to the page with the htmlInputFile, I get
the following error

Warning: Page has Expired The page you requested was created using
information you submitted in a form. This page is no longer available. As a
security precaution, Internet Explorer does not automatically resubmit your
information for you.

To resubmit your information and view this Web page, click the Refresh
button.
Even if I do not use the htmlInputFile, this error is still generated (there
is not submitted information). If I disable the control, then the error
does not occur.

Please let me know how I can stop this behavior. I would like the user to
be able to move back and forth between two pages without having to refresh
each time.

Thanks for any help,

Stephen

This behavior is from the browser. It is caused by the fact that an ASP.Net
WebForm posts back to itself. A web page that exists as the result of a form
post has been dynamically-created by some server-side technology, and the
browser knows this. Therefore, if the last page in history was the result of
a form post operation, the browser will prompt you to re-post the form in
order to refresh the page.

Thanks Kevin,

I do have a number of controls on this page (datagrid, dundas chart, etc.),
and the htmlInputFile is the only control that causes this behavior. If I
understand correctly, since the htmlInputFile is some server-side
technology, whenever I return to a page with a htmlInputFile on it, I will
be required to refresh and there is no way around this? If so, are there
other ways to move a file from client to server that will not cause this
behavior?
