Change File name while uploading

Nov 10th, 2009

Hi..

I want to upload a file with help of FileUpload control, in which, i want to save the file with a specific name or say a name entered in a textbox on a same page.
for ex, if textbox contains "ABC" then the files should be uploaded with abc.jpg name.

how can i restrict user to select only specific types of file in a fileupload control?

also, how can i save an image in 3 different sizes at time of uploading?

when user selects an image, it should be saved in some specific size in a specified folder with the name as in textbox,,,

Thanks,

hii dude
you could upload a file in a folder by a random name and and the name should be store in the data base with their path
and whenever you need image you can call database path
and you got your image
thats it

Hey thanks..but instead of going for database, we can directly change its name in SaveAs() itself.

The only problem left is, how can i control filtering of file upload control. Is there any possible way to achieve it?

Use this in your event handler for clicking an upload button.

 Help with Code Tags 
 ASP.NET Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
if (FileUpLoad1.HasFile)
{
    String fileName = "yourfilename";
    FileUpload1.PostedFile.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("yourpath/") + fileName);
}
if (FileUpLoad1.HasFile)
{
    String fileName = "yourfilename";
    FileUpload1.PostedFile.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("yourpath/") + fileName);
}

yeah..thanks..it works fine...

The only problem left is, how to filter the upload control. its possible by coding, like checking the posted file's extension, but is it anyway possible to provide facility in the upload control itself?

do reply..thanks...
