Javascript file uploads

Question

Any alternate thing in JavaScript to make a file upload control ?

actually the problem was, i am creating file upload control dynamically using htmlwriter, and when i use request.form[fileuplodctrl].tostring() , i am getting only the file name not path...

can any one suggest me any other ways to get full file path :)

As far as I know there is no possibility to upload a file with pure JavaScript. You alway need some like a swf movie or a java applet (probably it will also work with a silverlight app). If you do not like to write your own, use one the existing ones from the last answer (Javascript file uploads).

Speaking from the distant future, the year 2012, it is now possible with pure Javascript using HTML5 (and a hidden iframe for legacy browsers): https://github.com/bencolon/file-uploader – Blaise Jan 03 '12 at 09:52
