'How to change Text of button in FileUpload control and set value to textbox

Hi I want to upload file using c# but want to display as below image.

enter image description here

  1. I want to change the text of button from default “Browse” to “Upload”.
  2. When User return to this page I want to show image name he/she previously upload in textbox.

After some search I found its not possible to edit button name and set value for textbox.

So I developed below coding.

.ASPX

 <input runat="server" id="File1" type="file" style=" visibility:hidden;" />
                      <input id="Text1" type="text" runat="server" />
                      <asp:Button ID="Button1" OnClientClick="fireFileClick()" runat="server" Text="Upload" />

Js

function fireFileClick() {
            var objfile = document.getElementById("<%= File1.ClientID %>");
            objfile.click();


            var objTextBox = document.getElementById("<%= Text1.ClientID %>");
            objTextBox.value = objfile.value;
        }

.cs

private void SetPicture()
{
string strFileName = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(File1.PostedFile.FileName);
            string strExtnt = strFileName.Substring(strFileName.LastIndexOf('.') + 1).ToUpper();
            System.Drawing.Image UploadedImage = System.Drawing.Image.FromStream(File1.PostedFile.InputStream);
            float UploadedImageWidth = UploadedImage.PhysicalDimension.Width;
            float UploadedImageHeight = UploadedImage.PhysicalDimension.Height;
            if (UploadedImageWidth < 185 && UploadedImageHeight < 51)
            {
}
}

The problem is in .CS im not getting file name and path. the variable strFileName , strExtnt is returning empty. some body guide me.

You can do something like this.

.Aspx:

<input id="File1" type="file" runat="server" style="visibility: hidden"
    onchange="this.form.submit();" />
<input id="Button2" type="button" onclick="fireFileClick();" value="Upload" />

JavaScript:

function fireFileClick() {
    document.getElementById("<%= File1.ClientID %>").click();
}

.cs: The same as yours.

Note: feel free to change the way you submit the form in JavaScript, I just used the fastest way. The form will be submitted after file choice by the user.

Check out this link: ref
Basically uses two input controls, hides the actual input upload control, and applies styling to the non-file upload control. Awesome sauce!
