     Hello Community,

    I am using the asyncUpload Control to upload a single file.

    After the user selects their file I want to get the filename to show them their choice. Now the File is uploaded to the Temporary Folder and the File is renamed.

    At the moment I can only get the FileName after the file is uploaded to the TargetFolder, but actually I need the Temporary FileName.

    Is there any way to do that?

    This is my function:

    function OnClientFileSelected(sender, args) {
        var currentFileName = args.get_fileName();
        var fullPath = "C:/TempUpload/" + currentFileName;
        $("#LogoAuswahlPre").attr("href", fullPath);
        $('#LogoAuswahlPre').attr('data-lightbox', 'LogoAuswahl');
    }

    Thanks for reading

    Hi Daniel,

    Straight to the point, the temporary filename is not available on the client due to security reasons.

    Thanks,
    Shinu.

    Ok.

    Is there any other way to preview the User his uploaded File? I don't want to make a Postback. :/
