Hi,

Is there any way to browse the folder location on a button click in Asp.Net?
Of course, we have the controls called fileUploader and AsyncFileUploader.
But for some reason, i cannot use both here.

I have a button and on a button click the select a file should be enabled and pass the selected file path to a textbox.

Please advise.

Thanks.

Hi I my knowledge there is no way to browse the local machine folder in Asp.net(website),try in Silverlight.

In fileUploader and AsyncFileUploader u can browse the file only cant choose folder and from some browser can get filepath using file browser control,i think form IE cant get file path not sure.So in Silverlight can get folder bcz already i did,but win XP ,vista,windows server 2003 not supporting Silverlight.

Thank you Aravind for your quick revert. But i can't deviate from asp.net to silverlight as per the project specific.
