How to display the selected file clientside before upload ?

[CSurieux]

Hello,

I would appreciate some help in writing the javascript to use displaying an image selected by browsing before firing the upload to server.
As new client even have been created, may be someone has already exploited this new feature ?

Thanks for help.

Hello Christian Surieux,

You can check this article, but have in mind that it works only on localhost due to browser security trimmings:

This doesn't work for me.
I am using Firefox 3 and IE8 beta.

Hello chirag,

The problem with Firefox is that eventArgs.get_fileInputField().value returns only the filename instead of the full path as in IE7. I guess that this is the case with IE 8 beta as well.

I will include these limitations in the documentation.
