Would it be possible to access the file CONTENT in codebehind for a
standard:
<input id="htmlFile" type="file" />

Then in codebehind:
foreach (string keyName in
System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Request.Form.Keys)
{
//i can see keyName = "htmlFile" here as well as the "c:/myfile.txt"
for example
// i need content here
}

I cant use:
<asp:FileUpload ID="dotnetFile" runat="server" />
because I attempt to integrate legacy ASP application in our new
master page UI framework.

Help would be much appreciated

ASP.NET controls are just a way to generate HTML markup anyway i..e. the
file upload control just creates an input type="file" tag. If you want to
get a file posted from a non ASP.NET page, it's likely the simplest way
would be to use the Request.Files collection...

Hi,

you could try iterating Request.Files (item type is HttpPostedFile)

Use the Request.Files collection.
