Question

trying to read text into memory from a text file the user selects

MODEL:

public HttpPostedFileBase File { get; set; }

VIEW

<form action="" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" id="MyForm">
                @Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.File, new { type = "file" })
                 <input type="submit" name="btnSubmit" id="ProcessAll" value="Process All" />
            </form>

CONTROLLER:

[HttpPost]
    public ActionResult FileToFasta(F2FModel model)
{
//Need to read file to a string without uploading it
return View(model);
}

Any thoughts? Thanks

new StreamReader(model.File.InputStream).ReadToEnd()
