in asp.net-mvc, is there a good library or pattern to follow when saving users content (images, files, etc)

Question

i have an admin section of my website where \"authors\" can upload files like pictures for photo galleries, etc to include in dynamic content sections of my website later.

Answer 1

If you create a form with an enctype of multipart/form-data then you can receive an HttpPostedFileBase in your Controller.

In the view:

In the Controller:

public ActionResult MyAction(HttpPostedFileBase httpPostedFileBase) { // Your code here. }

The httpPostedFileBase argument will get mapped by the default model binder.
