I would like to upload the selected files directly to the server without requiring the user to make a postback. The client side file upload should be followed by upload to server automatically. Also I dont want to use a Generic handler. How can I accomplish this?

Any input appreciated
Antony

Hi Antony,

One option is you can place a RadButton in the page and after all the files are client uploaded, you can invoke a click from the JavaScript and there by initiate postback so that the user does not need to click anywhere to generate a postback to upload the files.

JavaScript:
<script type="text/javascript">
    function OnClientFilesUploaded(sender, args) {
        var $ = $telerik.$;
        $('#RadButtonID').click();
    }
</script>

Thanks,
Shinu.

Worked as I expected. Now can I use the same control to let the user view the file contents such as read pdf/view images once upload is done?

Hi Antony,

RadAsyncUpload control does not provide such a feature out of the box to view the uploaded files. One option is you can populate all the uploaded files (file names) in a RadListBox and double click the items to view the file in a RadWindow. Please try the following full code I tried which works fine at my end.

ASPX:
<telerik:RadAsyncUpload ID="RadAsyncUpload1" runat="server" MultipleFileSelection="Automatic"
    AllowedFileExtensions=".jpg" TargetFolder="Uploads/" OnClientFilesUploaded="OnClientFilesUploaded"
    OnFileUploaded="RadAsyncUpload1_FileUploaded">
</telerik:RadAsyncUpload>
<br />
<br />
<telerik:RadButton ID="rbtnIconUpload" runat="server" Style="display: none;">
</telerik:RadButton>
Uploaded Files<br />
<telerik:RadListBox ID="RadListBox1" runat="server" Visible="true" OnClientItemDoubleClicked="openFile">
</telerik:RadListBox>
<telerik:RadWindowManager ID="RadWindowManager" runat="server" Width="500px" Height="550px">
</telerik:RadWindowManager>

JavaScript:
<script type="text/javascript">
    function openFile(sender, args) {
        var filelocation = "Uploads/" + args.get_item().get_text();
        radopen(filelocation, "")
    }
</script>

C#:
protected void RadAsyncUpload1_FileUploaded(object sender, Telerik.Web.UI.FileUploadedEventArgs e)
{
    string targetfolder = RadAsyncUpload1.TargetFolder;
    e.File.SaveAs(Path.Combine(Server.MapPath(targetfolder), e.File.FileName));
    RadListBoxItem item = new RadListBoxItem(e.File.FileName);
    RadListBox1.Items.Add(item);
}

Thanks,
Shinu.
