Hello everyone,

I have a simple form with one FileUpload control for resumes. When I place the FileUpload into the Content Template of an UpdatePanel and submit the form, the PostedFile is null. When I take the FileUpload out of the UpdatePanel and submit the form, the PostedFile is there.

What do I need to do in order to get access to the file being posted, if I'm using it in conjunction with the ajax.net controls?

Many thanks in advance,
Brandon Taylor

Hi

in document, it said FileUpload is not compatible with updatepanel

http://ajax.asp.net/docs/overview/UpdatePanelOverview.aspx

There have been some posted work arounds in the forums if you limit the search to the last month and search for fileupload here in the ajax forums.... http://msmvps.com/blogs/luisabreu/archive/2006/12/14/uploading-files-without-a-full-postback.aspx

is one such link....

Thanks to everyone that replied. I've got my form working, even though a postback is incurred. I had to register the button that submits the form as a trigger, and it will find the FileUpload control as usual.
