- by FosterZ
hi,i'm building a simple school portal, i have stucked at uploading an image into my application, i.e a user should upload school image to my server, i have directory for images as ./Content/Images -- all uploading images should be uploaded to this directory. i have following code
input type="file" id="SchoolImageUrl" name="SchoolImageUrl" class="required"
using this m'getting a browse button, i have no idea how to upload that image to server and how would be my action controller ? i have following controller for creating school
public ActionResult SchoolCreate(_ASI_School schoolToCreate, FormCollection collection)
{
if (!ModelState.IsValid)
return View();
try
{
// TODO: Add insert logic here
schoolToCreate.SchoolId = Guid.NewGuid().ToString();
schoolToCreate.UserId = new Guid(Request.Form["currentUser"]);
schoolToCreate.SchoolAddedBy = User.Identity.Name;
HttpPostedFileBase file = Request.Files["SchoolImageUrl"];
file.SaveAs(file.FileName);
//schoolToCreate.SchoolImageUrl = Reuseable.ImageUpload(Request.Files["SchoolImageUrl"], Server.MapPath("../Content"));
//schoolToCreate.SchoolImageUrl = Path.GetFullPath(Request.Files[0].FileName);
schoolToCreate.SchoolImageUrl = collection["SchoolImageUrl"];
UpdateModel(schoolToCreate);
_schoolRepository.CreateSchool(schoolToCreate);
//_schoolRepository.SaveToDb();
return RedirectToAction("DepartmentCreate", "Department", new { userId = schoolToCreate.UserId, schoolId = schoolToCreate.SchoolId });
