HTML Code
<head runat="server">
<title>Multiple FileUpload Example</title>
<%--i am using this javascript function to add the fileuploader --%>
<script type = "text/javascript">
var counter = 0;
function AddFileUpload()
{
var div = document.createElement('DIV');
div.innerHTML = '<input id="file' + counter + '" name = "file' + counter + '" type="file" /><input id="Button' + counter + '" type="button" value="Remove" onclick = "RemoveFileUpload(this)" />';
document.getElementById("FileUploadContainer").appendChild(div);
counter++;
}
function RemoveFileUpload(div)
{
document.getElementById("FileUploadContainer").removeChild(div.parentNode);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server" enctype="multipart/form-data" method = "post">
<span style ="font-family:Arial">Click to add files</span>
<!--FileUpload Controls will be added here after clicking below button -->
<!--m calling AddFileUpload() function on the click of this button -->
<input id="Button1" type="button" value="add" onclick = "AddFileUpload()" />
<br /><br />
<div id = "FileUploadContainer">
<!--FileUpload Controls will be added here -->
</div>
<br />
<!--this button is used to upload the files and save inside the database -->
<asp:Button ID="btnUpload" runat="server" Text="Upload" OnClick="btnUpload_Click" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
We have designed galary page, to upload the multiple picture like as facebook and orkut.
now write code for multiple fileuploader.
C# code
using System;
using System.Data;
using System.Configuration;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Security;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls.WebParts;
using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;
// this nemaespace for file upload.
using System.IO;
using System.Data.SqlClient;
public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page
{
SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection();
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand();
// here m declared some variables that will be used to store the file name
string fn, aguid;
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// here i am creating connection with the database
//or
// here i am declaring connectionstring
con = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["cnn"].ConnectionString);
con.Open();
}
protected void btnUpload_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
// here m using for loop
// Request.Files.Count(with this line i am count how many files user want to upload)
// and this loop will work(i depend on the Request.Files.Count )
for (int i = 0; i < Request.Files.Count; i++)
{
HttpPostedFile PostedFile = Request.Files[i];
// here m checking that, fileuploader have file or not
// if yes then it will go inside the if condition
if (PostedFile.ContentLength > 0)
{
// here m opening the connection if the connection will close
if (con.State == ConnectionState.Closed)
{
con.Open();
}
// in the fn variable m storing file
fn = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(PostedFile.FileName);
// here m using Guid.NewGuid() method to create file new name
aguid = Guid.NewGuid() + fn.Substring(fn.LastIndexOf(".")).ToString();
// here m storing the file inside the folder
PostedFile.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("image_thumbnail\\") + aguid);
// here m using simple insertion code
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand();
// insert query
cmd.CommandText = @"INSERT INTO tb_image_upload
VALUES(@image_upload)";
cmd.Connection = con;
// here m a passing parameter
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@image_upload", aguid);
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
cmd.Dispose();
con.Close();
}
}
}
}
In above code, just create multiple file uploader in asp.net using c#.
Sql server script:
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sys.objects WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID(N'[dbo].[tb_image_upload]') AND type in (N'U'))
BEGIN
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tb_image_upload](
[id] [bigint] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[image_upload] [nvarchar](500) NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_tb_image_upload] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[id] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]
END
