Question

I want save path to file after postback in FileUpload asp.net controls like:

function GetPathToDownloadPictures() {
    var pathToDownLoadPicture = document.getElementById('<%= UploadPicturesNews.ClientID %>').value;
    document.getElementById('<%= PathToPicturesHidden.ClientID %>').value = pathToDownLoadPicture;
}

window.document.onload = AddPathToUploadControl();

function AddPathToUploadControl() {
    var pathToDownLoadPicture = document.getElementById('<%= PathToPicturesHidden.ClientID %>').value;
    document.getElementById('<%= UploadPicturesNews.ClientID %>').value = pathToDownLoadPicture;
}

Add path from FileUpload to HiddenField and after postback add Path from HiddenField to FileUpload, but not working….
Help me

Answer 1

The original file path is not available any more in modern browsers, as this information is regarded a security risk.

Depending on the browser, you either do not receive any path information, or c:\fakepath on IE.
