<input type="file"

[Pai]

Hello there,

Good Morning,

I am facing a peculiar problem.

I have the following code in the html section of my .apsx page

<input type="file" runat="server" id="fileBrowse" NAME="fileBrowse">

and the following code in my code behin:

string srcUrl = System.IO.Path.GetFullPath(fileBrowse.PostedFile.F ileName);
string srcFileName =
System.IO.Path.GetFileName(fileBrowse.PostedFile.F ileName);

Stream fStream = fileBrowse.PostedFile.InputStream;
byte[] contents = new byte[fStream.Length];
fStream.Read(contents, 0, (int)fStream.Length);
fStream.Close();

I also have another server side control whcih is a button

<asp:button id="AddUser" runat="server" Text="test">

when I click on this button and then try to upload the file, the
reference to the file which has to be uploaded is lost....

and fileBrowse.PostedFile.FileName holds value = ""....

I am not able to figure out how to go about this....

any idea why this is happening....

Kind Regards,
Srikanth Pai

Server-side code questions are unsuitable for this newsgroup.

Well, yes, but from the HTML viewpoint, we can say that the runat="..."
attribute does not comply with any published specification and, besides,
problems _could_ be caused by HTML markup for the form, since a form with
a file field should always have enctype="multipart/form-data" and
method="post". We cannot check whether this is relevant, since no URL was
given in the question.
