MVC 4 How to upload image file and show

Create a Method Like

private string UploadEmployeeImage(HttpPostedFileBase file)

        {

            string fileName = string.Empty;

            fileName = string.Format(@"{0}.{1}", Guid.NewGuid(), Path.GetExtension(file.FileName));

            // var path = Server.MapPath("~/App_Data/Files");

            var path = Server.MapPath("~/EmployeeImages");

            string savedFileName = Path.Combine(path, Path.GetFileName(fileName));

            file.SaveAs(savedFileName);

            return fileName;

        }

Call this method inside your controller action method like.

if (Request.Files["ImageFileToUpload"].ContentLength >0)

            {

                var file = Request.Files["ImageFileToUpload"];

                ///Saving the file to EmployeeImages folder with unique name.               

                fileName = UploadEmployeeImage(file);

}

Inside View use Following code

@using (Html.BeginForm("Edit", "Employees", FormMethod.Post, new { enctype = "multipart/form-data" }))

{

<div class="col-lg-6">

                                    <input type="file" id="fileToUpload" name="ImageFileToUpload" class="form-control" />

                                div>

}
