    Hi Lakmal,

    The client-site path is based on the browser that you are using. In IE6 and some older browsers FileName property of UploadedFile returns full path. Checkout the following forum link for more information.

    Hi lakmal,

    It is not possible to obtain the  file path on the client due to security reasons. In order to craft the serverside path for saving files you can use the following code:

    string fullPath = Path.Combine(Server.MapPath("Your upload folder"), uploadedFile.GetName());
