Hi Guys,

I tried to implement the example given in the below path

http://www.aspdotnet-suresh.com/2010/12/how-to-read-and-write-text-file-using.html?showComment=1346600194190#c2307473857763453433

but its not working in Firefox

as the line string path = fileupload1.PostedFile.FileName; returns only filename in firefox, so i have altered the code which saves the file on the server and read the file from there.But still its not working

Below is the code

protected void btnRead_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

string path = "~/Docs/" + fileupload1.FileName;
fileupload1.SaveAs(MapPath(path));
if (File.Exists(Server.MapPath(path)))
{
string[] readText = File.ReadAllLines(path);
StringBuilder strbuild = new StringBuilder();
foreach (string s in readText)
{
strbuild.Append(s);
strbuild.AppendLine();
}
textBoxContents.Text = strbuild.ToString();
}

Please help.

Thanks.

Prathap

Here is an example: .aspx page: <form id="form1" runat="server"> <div> <asp:FileUpload ID="fu1" runat="server" /> <asp:Button ID="btn" runat="server" Text="Submit" OnClick="SubmitData" /> <asp:TextBox ID="txt1" runat="server" TextMode="MultiLine" /> </div> </form> .aspx.cs file: protected void SubmitData(object sender, EventArgs e) { string path = Server.MapPath("~/"); string filename = fu1.PostedFile.FileName; if (fu1.HasFile) { fu1.SaveAs(path + filename); if (File.Exists(path + filename)) { string[] readtext = File.ReadAllLines(path + filename); StringBuilder strb = new StringBuilder(); foreach (string s in readtext) { strb.Append(s); strb.AppendLine(); } txt1.Text = strb.ToString(); } } } Regards, Awesome Coding !! :) Nkkppp, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator

Hi, i think its working fine dude.
There might be a small mistake.

Here is an example:

.aspx page:


 <form id="form1" runat="server">

    <div>



    <asp:FileUpload ID="fu1" runat="server" />

    

    <asp:Button ID="btn" runat="server" Text="Submit" OnClick="SubmitData" />



    <asp:TextBox ID="txt1" runat="server" TextMode="MultiLine" />



    </div>

    </form>

.aspx.cs file:


    protected void SubmitData(object sender, EventArgs e)

    {

        string path = Server.MapPath("~/");



        string filename = fu1.PostedFile.FileName;



        if (fu1.HasFile)

        {





            fu1.SaveAs(path + filename);



            if (File.Exists(path + filename))

            {





                string[] readtext = File.ReadAllLines(path + filename);



                StringBuilder strb = new StringBuilder();



                foreach (string s in readtext)

                {

                    strb.Append(s);

                    strb.AppendLine();



                }



                txt1.Text = strb.ToString();

            }

        }









    }

0	Hey thanks man. Its working fine. I think earlier there was a mistake in these two lines string path = "~/Docs/" + fileupload1.FileName; fileupload1.SaveAs(MapPath(path)); As we need to Map "~/Docs/" as root directory but i had also included the filename.
