how to select multiple images using FileUpload conrol in framework 4.0 in asp.net c#

Question

I am trying to upload more than one image using FileUpload control but not able to do it

i tried:

<asp:FileUpload ID="fuImage" AllowMultiple="true" runat="server"/>

and this also :

<asp:FileUpload ID="fuImage" multiple="multiple" runat="server"/>

but as i searched for hours on google,i found that this is only working for version 4.5 not in 4.0

protected void btnAdd_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        if (fuimage.HasFile)
        {
            string fname = fuimage.FileName;
            string path = Server.MapPath("~/EventPics/");
            string fext = Path.GetExtension(fname);
            fext = fext.ToLower();
            string link = "~/EventPics/" + fname;
            if (fext == ".jpg" || fext == ".png" || fext == ".gif" || fext == ".bmp")
            {
                fuimage.SaveAs(path + fname);
                con = new SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["WebAAERT_DBConnectionString"].ConnectionString);
                SqlCommand cmd;

                //create command
                cmd = new SqlCommand("EventMasterInsert", con);
                cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
                cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ImagePath", link);
                cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@EventTitle", txtEventTitle.Text);
                cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@EventDate", txtEventDate.Text);
                cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@EventPlace", txtPlace.Text);
                cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ShortDescription", txtShort.Text);
                cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Description", txtDesc.Text);
                cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@EventTime", txtTime.Text);
                //open connection
                cmd.Connection = con;
                con.Open();

                //execute command
                int rowcount = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
                if (rowcount > 0)
                {
                    Response.Write("<script>alert('Event Added');</script>");
                    txtDesc.Text = "";
                    txtEventDate.Text = "";
                    txtEventTitle.Text = "";
                    txtPlace.Text = "";
                    txtShort.Text = "";
                    txtTime.Text = "";


                }
            }
        }

{
}

        {
            if (Request.Files.Count > 0)
            {
                HttpFileCollection attachments = Request.Files;
                for (int i = 0; i < attachments.Count; i++)
                {
                    HttpPostedFile attachment = attachments[i];
                    if (attachment.ContentLength > 0 && !String.IsNullOrEmpty(attachment.FileName))
                    {
                        string fname = attachment.FileName;
                        string path = Server.MapPath("~/EventPics/");
