How to upload/download the folder and its contents from web server to local machine and local machine to web server
Hi,
i am using asp.net with c# and creating the web project In my project Now I am using the Button and listbox and on button click event I am using the code
protected void AddFolder_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string strPath = "";
string strCaption = "Browse a directory for uploading Album.";
//DialogResult dlgResult;
string dlgResult = "";
Shell32.ShellClass shl = new Shell32.ShellClass();
Shell32.Folder2 fld = (Shell32.Folder2)shl.BrowseForFolder(0, strCaption, 0, System.Reflection.Missing.Value);
if (fld == null)
{
dlgResult = "Cancel";//DialogResult.Cancel;
}
else
{
strPath = fld.Self.Path;
lstboxFile.Items.Add(strPath);
BaydonConstants.hif1.Add(strPath);
dlgResult = "Ok";//DialogResult.OK;
}
}
So In this case I have to select the path for a folder and Zip this folder and upload the zip file on the web server and also reverse this process (server to local machine).please help any related site and code which can help me ......waiting to hopefully response.....
Thanks and regards
Amit

Hi,
Can you please reorganise your code because it is really hard to read. So your question is how you can upload a whole folder without zipping it, is it?
Thanks

Files can be uploded from a local machine to the server using the ASP.NET inbuilt server control, FileUpload
an article which explains uploading a file from local machine to web server can be found at:

I am not sure whether we have an easy way to download the entire folder content. You might have to download the folder contents one by one.

Hi,
I don't think you can upload a folder to the server then ZIP it there. What you can do is the following
- Upload a ZIP folder and extract on the server.
- ZIP a folder which resides on the server local directory
There is a free open source library called csharpziplib. It has all the functionalities that you need to work with ZIP files (extract, zip...etc).
