Question

I want to show up an OpenFileDialog box in my ASP .NET web application. I am writing in c#. I want to create a user account with an image so I need to select image from my computer and save it into a database. How can I implement it.

Answer 1

You can do that using

   <input type="file"  id="fileLoader" name="files" title="Load File" ...

The usual trick is to make it invisible, and on clicking some visible artifact (styled link, image, button… whatever) simulate a click on fileLoader:

 $("#fileLoader").click();
