FileUpLoad Control - Retrieving full pathname
 

When I use the FileUpLoadControl 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.

Hy,
Why do you need the path? The filecontent is in the PostedFile
property and the filename in the Filename property.
Kind regards, Shiny

Hy,
Why do you need the path? You have the content of the file in your
FileUploadControl and you can get it if you call SaveAs.

Browser security prevents servers from inspecting a users hard drive. Would
you want any old web site poking its way around your personal files?
If you really must do something like that then you'd need to create an
ActiveX control.
