AJAX :: How To Know User Already Selected A File In The Upload Control
May 27, 2010
how can I know that the user already selected a file in the upload control, basically I need something like an event when the uploadfile control already have the filename, since I want to upload inmediately without having a second button that the user would need to click so the program can do the SavAs, I want to do it automatially after the user selected the file with the upload control.
I am using the async file upload control to upload to a image file. I want the user to upload only jpg files. And for that I am checking the uploadedfile content type in server side, after the upload complets. I wanna check this, before upload starts. There is one javascript method
function startUpload(sender, args){}
but how to access the content type of the file selected by user.
I have an asp.net panel having various controls including gridview. I have converted this panel into pdf and attached it as an email attachment using memory stream. Everything is working fine. Now I have an File upload control outside panel through which I have to attach a file and send it in mail along with the already attached panel. But I am unable to figure out how to do it.
Question: I have a web interface where a user can upload an XML file, which then gets imported into a SQL database.
Import works fine, interface works fine, logfile works fine. The problem: The user doesn't get any progress report until the entire file has been processed... Is there any way the server can output logfile messages to the user page while processing? I mean AJAX doesn't work for server side calls to the client, only vice-versa, or is there a workaround ?
My application allows a user to upload a file using the FileUpload control. The data contained in the uploaded file is then displayed to the user in a Grid for review if certain field validation criteria is met otherwise, a message is displayed stating that invalid data was encountered. If the data displayed is satisfactory, they have a 'Process Data' button to add the data to the system.
Initially, I used a simple If/Else block to determine if there was a file selected or not and if not, display a message to the user. As the coding got more complicated, this stopped working and I was told to use the RequiredFieldValidator control instead to get around the issues that arose.Now, I have a new issue: after the uploaded file data passes field criteria validation, the FileUpload box is cleared automatically and so when the user clicks the 'Process Data' button, the VC throws a message stating that the file name is missing from the FileUpload box.
I have a file upload control in which i want to restricr the users not to upload more than 1mb file. Is it possible using custom validator or any other code. I want to raise validation before any postback happends.
i am new to this ASP.NET and AJAX.I am trying to learn AJAX. I Have one doubt.what is the difference between normal file upload control and ajax AsyncFileUpload Control ..?
I am trying to display selected file to a user right after he selects. Which means I have to save it to a temp location and change image src (or ImageUrl if we are talking about asp:Image).
And I am trying to use AsyncFileUpload (from Ajax Toolkit) for that. Apparently it has "OnUploadedComplete" server event, but sadly it isn't working.
I have a user control in which i am using File upload control for uploading file.
I have used ModelPopExtender here for showing it in popup.
I am using javascript function for full PostBack. In Javascript function, i am using __doPostBack for PostBack. It is working fine when i use this control in aspx page.
Problem occurs when i use this user control in another user control. It does not find javascript function.
I want to set the default value to the FileUploader Control. Unfortunately due to browser security, this is prevented, but some people have done that. I don't know with which way they have achive that. How to set value to a fileuploader control through visual basic 2010 or c#.
I want to upload files to the web servers from the client machines.
Can i upload a file on a network share folder using file upload control?
I would like to create a share folder on a file server sitting next to the web server. If i upload the file from the network share folder instead of uploading it from the client machine does it make any difference?
Will the file be stored in a temporary location before copying to the final destination? Where will be the file stored in this case of uploading it from share folder?
I'm posting this here because is related with ajax:
I need to upload files without the postback. So far i know that i can use an UpdatePanel with an AsyncFileUpload to achieve this, and it works fine, but this is not enough for me. Turns out that i need the fileupload control to be invisible until the user press a button. then i have to show the file upload control also without the postback, that's why i'm using the updatepanel. To acomplish this i'm using the following code:
[Code]....
if i don't use the normal panel it works fine, but when i put that control, it doesn't work. By "doesn't work" what i whant to say is that it doesn't fire the OnUploadedComplete method.
I've been wrecking my brain on how to solve this but I'm all out of idea. I have a FileUpload control within an UpdatePanel. I have a button, let's call this btnSave, that saves the FileUpload.PostedFile into an sql server. What happens is that when the btnSave is clicked, I would save the file to a ViewState as well as upload it to the sql server. I also have an ImageButton, call this btnDel, that clears up the ViewState that holds the File in the viewState. This btnDel is an Asynchrounouspostback trigger to the UpdatePanel that holds the FileUpload control. If I browse a file, click on btnSave, everything would work fine. However, if I browse a file, click save, click on btnDel, browse anotherfile using FileUpload, and click save, sometimes FileUpload.PostedFile has a file and sometimes it is null. I'm really not sure what's causing this. I know that there is an issue of incompatibility if btnSave is made to be an asynchronouspostback trigger to the updatePanel. I don't see how making btnDel an asynchronouspostback trigger could affect this.
If I do take out the FileUpload control from the UpdatePanel and remove btnDel as a trigger, everything works fine except a postback is generated, which the client does not like.
am trying to use the AsyncFileUpload control in ajax toolkit to upload a picture file, save the file on a location on the server's filesystem and display the picture file back to the client system. I have both the image and AsyncFileUpload controls inside an updatepanel but its seems the UploadedComplete server code is not firing when the file upload completes any clue?
I am having a strange issue associated with AsyncFileUpload control. after the upload, I am updating the page by calling__doPostBack function from ClientUploadComplete event handler. it works fine first time, but next time I try to upload the file, it refreshes the page first before uploading, then does the upload and refreshes the page again. not sure why refresh page is being called twice once before the upload and once after the upload. I have a simplified version of this code which has this bug. [Code]....
I am using a Aynchronous file uploader control to upload files.when I click on browse file button it opens a default dialog box. But i want to open it for a folder which is created by me on my system is any way to do this.
I have 3 upload controls ,one listbox and two button controls in page. One button control named Attach has the code to add the files to listbox form 3rd file upload control and the 2nd button control named Save has the code to save the files of 1st and 2nd file upload controls in application folder and items of listbox to database.
The issue is couldn't maintain the state of 1st and 2nd file upload controls after browsing the files to file upload controls and clicking on Attach button control to add file name to listbox which was browsed by 3rd file upload control.So i placed the 3rd file upload control, Attach button and listbox in update panel but its not working. My requirement is when clicked on save button files of 1st and 2nd file upload controls in application folder and items of listbox to database, but 1st and 2nd file upload controls will loose the files as soon as Attach button is clicked to add filename of 3rd fileupload control to listbox.
