Require Full Path from FileUpload

Question

After browsing a file from Local Hard Disk, it shows a full path of file Location. I require the full path, not only File Name (FileUpload1.FileName).

<asp:fileupload id="FileUpload1" runat="server" xmlns:asp="#unknown" />

i.e. "C:/Details.doc"

I can use this line also to get the full path ---

<input id="FileImageC" runat="server" atomicselection="true" class="buttonUpload"
                            name="FileImageC" onchange="ShowImageC(this.value);" style="width: 150px" tabindex="139"
                            type="file" />

Deeksha Shenoy: What was the point of the edit? You corrected word casings and italicized the path. Was it really necessary?

The FileUpload control will only give you the filename as the path it comes from has no meaning when posted to the server.

What are you trying to accomplish?
