Hello,

I have a RadUpload control on a web form.  However, I'm storing a lot of additional information with regard to the file that is being uploaded in additional text boxes, combo boxes, etc.  Some of these values cause the page to post back, which normally would be fine because all of the information get's put into ViewState.  However, every time the page posts back, the Upload control loses the file that was selected and I have to select the file again.

Is there a way to preserve the value of the file selected between post backs?

Thanks,
Warren

Hi Warren,

No, this is not possible.
RadUpload does not support initially selected files or allow file selections to persist across postbacks. This is a security limitation of the standard <input type=file> elements which it uses internally for file selection.
You can find the Known Limitations here.

I' ve the same error...
I need create the radupload control programatically...
I created in PageLoad
when click in Save button, this line is Zero: RadUpload1.UploadedFiles.Count
But I upload a lot of file....
:-(
What is the problem?


This is my code:

 protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {

            if (!Page.IsPostBack)
            {


            }


        }

        private void buttonSubmit_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
        {
            Button btn = (Button) sender;
            RadUpload radUpload = (RadUpload)btn.Parent.FindControl("RadUpload1");      

            int g = radUpload.UploadedFiles.Count; --> Here is Zero
        }


        protected void Page_Init(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {


            RadUpload radUpload = new RadUpload();
            radUpload.ID = "RadUpload1";
            radUpload.InitialFileInputsCount = 1;
            radUpload.MaxFileInputsCount = 10;
            radUpload.ControlObjectsVisibility = ControlObjectsVisibility.Default;
            radUpload.TargetPhysicalFolder = VirtualPathUtility.ToAbsolute("~/TempFolder");


            radUpload.Skin = "Vista";

            this.DivUploadContainer.Controls.Add(radUpload);


            Button button = new Button();
            button.ID = "buttonSubmit";
            button.Text = "Submit";
            button.Style.Add(HtmlTextWriterStyle.BackgroundColor, "#C1E3F7");
            button.Style.Add(HtmlTextWriterStyle.Color, "black");
            button.Style.Add(HtmlTextWriterStyle.FontFamily, "Arial, Century");
            button.Click += new EventHandler(buttonSubmit_Click);

            this.DivUploadContainer.Controls.Add(button);
        }

Hello Julieta,

If you place the RadUpload control inside an UpdatePanel, you need to ensure that the page performs a full postback, not an ajax one, because you can't upload files using an ajax request.

I hope that helps.
