Hi,
I want to show the selected image as the preview, i have used below code but it is not working and tools.
i am using Visual Studio 2010 Premium,

<telerik:RadUpload ID="RadUpload1" runat="server" OnClientFileSelected="OnClientFileSelected" AllowedFileExtensions=".bmp,.jpeg,.jpg,.gif"  MaxFileSize="100000000"/>

<asp:Image id = "imgTheme"   runat="server" ClientIdMode = "Static"/>

<script type = "test/javascript">
function OnClientFileSelected(sender, args){
var image = document.getElementById("imgTheme");
image.src = args.get_fileInputField().value;
}
</script>

in java script i am able to get the image, i have shaw the image control in the alert. But when i saw image source in the alert it show the path "C:\\fakePath\imagefileName", and i am not uploading the image from the c drive.

Hi Puru,

Try the following code snippet to achieve your scenario.

ASPX:
<telerik:radupload id="RadUpload1" targetfolder="~/uploads/" allowedfileextensions=".jpg,.jpeg,.gif,.png" onclientfileselected="OnClientFileSelectedHandler" runat="server"></telerik:radupload>
<asp:Image ID="Image1" runat="server" Height="56px" Style="visibility: hidden" Width="236px" />

JS:
<script type="text/javascript">
 function OnClientFileSelectedHandler(sender, eventArgs) {
       var input = eventArgs.get_fileInputField();
       //check the extension   
       if (sender.isExtensionValid(input.value)) {
           var img = document.getElementById('<%= Image1.ClientID %>');
           if (img) {
               img.style.visibility = "";
               img.src = input.value;
           }
       }
   }
</script>

The code above will work correctly on IE browser only, since in Firefox the input.value returns the filename instead of the full path to the file.When using RadUpload such behavior is highly restricted for security reasons as it is explained in this article so you can consider using RadAsyncUpload as it is shown in this on-line demo.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Princy.

Hi Princy,

Thanks for your response. I Have tried as you have suggested but it did not worked for me. If i alert the image.src then it shows "file://C://FakePath//ImageName.png". Your second option is complicated so i just want to user RadUpload. 

Even i have no issue to save the image  at temporary location, but i did not find any event of radupload to do it. Please suggest me if you have any idea.

Thanks

Hello Puru,

 
I am attaching a sample web page that implements preview of the selected file after it selection with RadUpload. 

Hope this will be helpful.

Kind regards,
