Browse File dialog

[Anita C]

Hi,
On the click of a button I want to be able to display a dialog so that a
file can be picked , the name of which needs to be passed to a function as a
parameter in my asp.net app.. However for the file dialog I need to specify
the type of file and the directory which can be browsed. Can someone please
point out articles/code samples which will help achieve the above.
Thanks a lot.

You can use the file upload control on your toolbar, or type it into the
HTML manually.
<input type=file id=myFile runat=server />
Here's a couple good tutorials on the subject for you:
