I want to upload a file in my project, the file path and name should be saved in database, but I cant get the right solution.

Here is my views code -

HTML

<table>
       <tr>
       <td class="EmptyClass"></td>
       <td class="LabelCalss"><label>Attachments</label></td>

       <td class="TextBoxClass">

     <input type="file" id="file"/>

       <input type="button" id="btnup" value="Upload" />  </td>     </tr>
       <tr><td class="EmptyClass"></td><td class="LabelCalss"></td>



       <td class="text-box">
       @Html.ListBox("UploadFiles", Enumerable.Empty<SelectListItem>())
       </td>
       </tr></table>

When I click on upload button it will save in DB as I need.

Make you form like this

C#

@using (Html.BeginForm("ActionResult", "Controller", FormMethod.Post, new { @enctype = "multipart/form-data" }))

and in you Actionresult pass a parameter

C#

Actionresult(HttpPostedFileBase file)

in this file variable,you'll get all information related to the uploaded file save its path and name in DB

aspx:

HTML

<![CDATA[<% Using (Html.BeginForm("ContentUpload", "ContentUpload", FormMethod.Post, New With {.enctype = "multipart/form-data", .onsubmit = "return confirmSubmit();"}))%>]]>

 <input type="file" name="ExcleFile" id="ExcleFile" value="Upload" /> 
 <%End Using %>

Controller:

VB

'ContentUpload controller, ContentUpload action, Post
<acceptverbs(httpverbs.post)> _
    <validateinput(false)> _
    <actionname("contentupload")> _
    Function ContentUpload_Post() As ActionResult
     'Get the file by name tag, not the id tag
      Dim pf As HttpPostedFileBase = Request.Files("ExcleFile")
      Dim filename As String = Path.GetFileName(pf.FileName)
      ' you can get more information about the upload file use HttpPostedFileBase method. 
      'Save to db
      Return View()
    End Function
