File Name Validation when Uploading Images

Hi all,

I would like to know ho to validate a file name when uploading via asp and
whether or not this can be validated with javascript?

I need to upload 2 images and the file names must be the same...

1) browse for 1st image.
2) image path and file name appears in text box i.e. IMAGE1.JPG
3) browse for 2nd image.
4) 2nd image file name MUST match the file name in the text box of 1st image
i.e IMAGE1.JPG.

Hope this is clear...

How can this be done.

Many thanks,

Jon

not exactly what you want, but is a head in the right direction - this
checks that the file is indeed an image file, add more extensions as you
like

var picPat = "^.*(\.(gif|jpg |bmp))$";

Hi There, I have a PHP script that sends an email with attachment and works great when provided the path to the file to send. However this file needs to be on the same server as the script. I want to develop a webpage where people can send attachments that are stored on their local PC.

I have a simple webform where a user can upload images by using an input element of type "file". In the a button's click event in the codebehind is this code which saves the file to the server. Everything works OK. My concern is how can I be sure the user is really uploading an image and not a file with some malicious code in it. Also, can someone tell me what my security concerns are here? Here's the html: <form id="Form1"...

Hello. I am trying to upload a file and save it in a Sql Server 2000 database. This seems to be working fine.

The basic purpose of the site is for authenticated users to post event listings, which often include photographs.

On submit, the images (if any)...
