How to display html File into IFrame--need urgent help [modified]

[Vishnu Narayan Mishra]

Hello every one There is little problem of IFrame, I have to show Html file in a IFrame, there is File upload control in the form, from there user browse a html file, I don't have to save the uploaded file, just I have to Save path of the uploaded file into an XML File. So I have to show the html file into IFrame by reading path from the XML and If user wants to show the newly uploaded file into IFrame then I have to also show uploaded file into IFrame without saving that uploaded. it will works well fine when I will save the file into server, but don't want to save the file and I have to save the file path into XML. So how can we assign 'src' of I Frame so that without saving the file.. Following code work well when I was displayed file into IFrame after saving it. Is there is any method through java script you know? .cs file protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { } protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { string path = System.IO.Path.Combine(Server.MapPath("~"),FileUpload1.FileName); FileUpload1.SaveAs(path); myIFrame.Attributes.Add("src", FileUpload1.FileName); } .aspx file

You can not. The SRC needs a file to load. And with security restrictions of loading across cross domains, it ought to be from the same domain/webserver.

I don't think so. You can't load files to IFrame which is stored locally on users system. Have you tried getting the IFrame object through JS and setting the src with the file name specified ?

Yes i tried through java script function ShowPreview() { document.getElementById('htmlPreviewIFrame').src = GetClientSideControl(document, 'FileUpload').value; return false; } but it will work when the file exist in the web server project folder, i.e. in my project folder.

Can you show the GetClientSideControl() function ?

Is this your own method in the page invoking some ActiveX OBJECT?

there is no issue regarding this GetClientSideControl() function,This function simply return id of any control. It is running successfully.It is not mandatory to use Iframe, we can also use any other control, do you know any other control? I am sending the GetClientSideControl() code.. Tell me soon...if you find the solution. function GetClientSideControl(document,ControlId) { var ctl; var d=document.all; var intLength=document.forms[0].length; var i=0; var id=''; for(i=0;i
