Problem with Keydown on FileUpload control

[ramki16]

Hi all,

am using Html FileUpload control and i have used the applied the css by following the intructions provided in following link to change the appearance of the browse button.

http://www.dreamincode.net/forums/showtopic15621.htm

this functions well when i use mouse clicks to select file an update the files to some location on server.

but when i bring the focus on to the control and press enter key Or space bar file browser gets opened but after selected the file; the selected file is not getting loaded in to the fileUpload control to save the file at some location.

if (UploadFileName.PostedFile != null)
{
string strfilename = UploadFileName.PostedFile.FileName;
string filePathOnserver = Server.MapPath(".") + "\\CustomReports\\" + reportName;
string path = HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath(".");
UploadFileName.PostedFile.SaveAs(filePathOnserver);
}

am not getting the "UploadFileName.PostedFile.FileName" and getting the file size=0 when i select the file(when the file browser is opened by keydown event).

it is functioning fine when i make a selection by opening file browser by mouse click event.

Is the any difference in opening file Browser by Click event and KeydownEvent?

In what keydown event do you have the code?

[ramki16]

code is written in "OK" button which is on the same page.

Does the OK button have focus when you hit the Enter Key?

Is there an "AcceptButton" property on the page?

[ramki16]

no! actually my page is accessed by master page.
and where should i keep this property.
