Hi developers.
I am working on asp.net using vb language.
I have a Imagebutton and i want to open a dialog like fileupload on imagebutton clik event.
As you know fileupload does not show the path untill we select the file.
I need whenever i click on any folder it returns me the path.
I want to set that path in my textbox.

Can file upload do this?

Please help me.

Thanks in Advance.

Solution 2

Instead of using a TextBox and an ImageButton, you can use the FileUpload control which is already available in the StandarD toolbar!
It is the easiest solution for your requirement!

No. ASP.NET can't do this, because HTML cannot. So, you'd need to write a browser add in control to do it.

No problem i am using aspx page can you please explain?

I guess you don't know what ASP.NET is. ASP.NET is an engine to generate HTML. Therefore, if HTML can't do it, then ASP.NET can't do it. You'd need to embed a flash/java/etc control in your page. ASP.NET can't do it.

Thanks dear but one more question, can jquery do this?

Christian Graus 5-Jul-11 2:40am

No, it can't. Nothing that's delivered as text to the browser, can do this.
