Introduction
In this article, I will show you how to upload images to folder and display uploaded images in ASP.Net GridView using C#. I am using visual studio 2012 framework and Microsoft sql server 2008 R2 for this demo.
let’s start for this demo step by step using Asp.Net Empty Web site.
Step 1: Create Asp.Net project, by using following steps.
- Open Visual Studio.
- Click on File -> New -> Project.
- In this project, I am using C# as a programming language. In next debugging article I will show you how to upload multiple images using VB.NET
- Inside Visual C# -> Web -> Website -> Select Asp.Net Empty Web site -> Name your project as uploadimageinasp -> Select Ok
Step 2 : Index.aspx file.
Right click on your project -> Add -> new item -> Add Index.aspx file.
Now copy & paste following code in between form element of your Index.aspx.
<div>
<br /><br />
<asp:FileUpload ID="FileUpload1" runat="server" />
<asp:Button ID="btnUpload" runat="server" Text="Upload" OnClick="Upload" />
<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="false" ShowHeader="false">
<Columns>
<asp:BoundField DataField="Text" />
<asp:ImageField DataImageUrlField="Value" ControlStyle-Height="100" ControlStyle-Width="100" />
</Columns>
</asp:GridView>
</div>Step 3: Index.aspx.cs file.
Double click on upload button and add following code
if (FileUpload1.HasFile)
{
string fileName = Path.GetFileName(FileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName);
FileUpload1.PostedFile.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("~/Images/") + fileName);
Response.Redirect(Request.Url.AbsoluteUri);
}Step 4 : Index.aspx.cs file
Copy and paste following code on page load event
if (!IsPostBack)
{
string[] filePaths = Directory.GetFiles(Server.MapPath("~/Images/"));
List<ListItem> files = new List<ListItem>();
foreach (string filePath in filePaths)
{
string fileName = Path.GetFileName(filePath);
files.Add(new ListItem(fileName, "~/Images/" + fileName));
}
GridView1.DataSource = files;
GridView1.DataBind();
}Step 5: Press F5 and see the result. You can download the demo using following ‘Download Source Code’ button
