Client-side

[Andrea]

I would like to elaborate file client side before snding it to server. How can I do it?

Hi Andrea,

Yes, you can modify the file on the client side before sending it. The easiest way to do this is to handle the FileUploadStarting event. There you have the original file and you can choose what the actual uploaded stream will be by setting the NewFilestream property.

void upload_FileUploadStarting(object sender, FileUploadStartingEventArgs e)
{
    var selectedFile = e.SelectedFile.File;

    // set the new file steam to whatever you like:
    //e.NewFileStream = ....
}

Hi,

I am using RadUpload.
I just want to access file content on client side.
Can I use RadUpload control without setting UploadServiceUrl (without handler file) ?

How can use RadUpload control on client side only to access file content ?

Thanks,
Gurpreet

Hi Gurpreet,

The RadUpload control is designed to allow you to easily select and upload files on a server. This is why in your case, it might be better to use the OpenFileDialog to open a file on the client and manipulate it as you need to.
