Question

From what i understand for asp.net FileUpload.FileName ruturns the full path while in firefox it returns just the filename. How would i remove the path from the returned string as i just need the html encoded filename.

Answer 1

You can use the Path static class to get the filename.

var fileName = Path.GetFileName(somePath);

And the HttpUtility static class to encode it.

var encoded = HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(fileName);
