I posted in my previous article how we can upload file.
But I face problem when I try to upload file with update panel. The File Upload Control doesn't work inside an
Update Panel due to security reasons and restrictions a browser implies. But by
using some property we can upload a file with update panel.
In this article I am going to show how we can upload
file in asp.net with update panel. Here I use
<Triggers>
<asp:PostBackTrigger ControlID="ButtonUpload" />
</Triggers>
This is the aspx code.
<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="_Default" %>

<br />
<asp:Label ID="Label2" runat="server"></asp:Label>
<br />
</ContentTemplate>
<Triggers>
<asp:PostBackTrigger ControlID="ButtonUpload" />
</Triggers>
</asp:UpdatePanel>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
This is the aspx.cs code
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.IO;
public partial class _Default :
System.Web.UI.Page
{
protected void
Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
}
protected void
ButtonUpload_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
FileUpload1.PostedFile.SaveAs(Server.MapPath(".") + "//"
+ System.IO.Path.GetFileName(FileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName));
Label2.Text =
FileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName;
Label2.Text =
FileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName;
}
}
When I run the application then output
