Hi Sakthi,

This is not possible due to a security limitations in the browsers. One have to explicitly click on the file input in order to open the dialog, it is not possible to use JavaScript.

Kind regards,

Hello Sakthi,

The functionality that you need to achieve is now available in most of the browsers except for the IE. You can use the following code (find the input by its css class) to trigger the click event:

<script type="text/javascript">
           function OnClientClicking(sender) {
               sender.set_autoPostBack(false);
               $telerik.$(".ruFileInput").click();
           }
       </script>

markup:

<telerik:RadButton runat="server" Text="SELECT" ID="button1" OnClientClicking="OnClientClicking">
        </telerik:RadButton>

        <telerik:RadAsyncUpload runat="server" ID="AsyncUpload1" Localization-Select="" MaxFileInputsCount="1">
        </telerik:RadAsyncUpload>
