Hi All,
I was wondering if it is possible to use(if it will work) the OpenFileDialog
class in ASP.NET. Currently I am using the classic javascript



but I have I need to customize the browse button.

Does anyone knows some good source of information?
Thank you for your time.

An OpenFileDialog is not an HTML element. Everything in an ASPX page on the
client is an HTML element.
but I have I need to customize the browse button.

On the client-side (where OpenFileDialog works), it's just plain old HTML
plus some javascript. The server-side technology ASP.Net doesn't really add
functionality there (it works on non-MS and non-.Net browsers).

So just use your old javascript version.

Customize ?

You could hide the button and trigger the click event on this button using
your own button. IMO much work for something not that usefull as it make
sense to have a standard button here.

Of course, client side ASP.NET doesn''t have meaning ie you are still with
what HTML offers...

Other than that you could use an activex or dotnet control if you really
need something better than the input type=file tag.
