Uploading files

[Charles A. Lackman]

Hello,

I have a web site that allow visitors to upload files to my server using
HTMLInputFile.

Is there a way to make a file dialogbox appear during the upload like the
one that appears when you download a file??

Thanks

Chuck

Yes. By using(and buying) those 3rd party components.

Unluckily, because of the nature of how ASP.NET handles request stream,
you're likely to have to write the part in other web technologies. (e.g.:
ASP, JSP, PHP, Perl, etc.)

Thanks,

The page is currently programmed in ASP.NET.

Odd. I would have started with "by writing" (or using or buying) an ActiveX
Control, Java Applet, or .Net Windows Form control for a browser that does
this. Of course, I am making an assumption that the person asking the
question is a programmer, but I feel somewhat safe in that assumption, as
this is a programmer's newsgroup.

Partially agreed.

But remember this is a newsgroup for mainly web programmers, and considering
I myself do not have the ability to develop some kind of those things(i.e.
ISAPI filters), and I think it's troublesome to have the remaining ways
digitial signed(i.e.: applets or whatever client-side control), my first
thought automatically wipe this option out.
