From my web page,i just want to browse a video file and then get its full path,so that i can use the path to stream the video file through VLC ,using the command line process.
For this purpose i dropped a file type control into my web page.
After selecting a file,when i check the value of the input field.Then i am only getting the name of the File
i.e If i select a file from my desktop named 1.mov,
then the location showed in the default text box with the input file type is C:\Users\xx\Desktop\1.mov
But when i check the value of the input field then it only gives the name of the video file i.e 1.mov
Can anyone give me a suitable work around for this or may be some other way to get the full path of the selected file.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.
You Must have to Upload file on server first, then u can get root path using following method,
Server.MapPath("~"):It returns the physical path to the root of the application.
