Hi,
I want to develop file upload and download functionality. I would like to know whether it is possible using any client side scripting. I dont want to use any server side scripting.

Use the FileUpload control in the Ajax Control toolkit or find a 3rd party control that is more fancy. For download, just provide the url to the file.

Hi,
Personally, I do not think you achieve this with 0% server side coding. whenever the file has to be uploaded to server, there must be some code on server doing this. if you do not want to make user feel on refreshing or reloading, use AJAX or JQuery, to give graphical "Please Wait" message, or make UI much user friendly. Perform the download or upload code in code behind. Select the best approach that suits your architecture.

hope it helps.
