Preview image before upload using FileUpload control and jQuery in ASP.NET

Hi friends,in this article I will explain about how to preview image before upload using FileUpload control and jQuery in ASP.NET
                    While for the browsers that support HTML5 i.e. Internet Explorer 10 and 11+, Mozilla FireFox, Google Chrome and Opera, the image preview is displayed usingHTML5 FileReader API.

Method 1:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head id="Head1" runat="server">
    <title>Preview image before upload using FileUpload control and jQuery in ASP.NET </title>
    <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        function PreviewImageBeforeUpload(Imagepath) {
            if (Imagepath.files && Imagepath.files[0]) {
                var Filerdr = new FileReader();
                Filerdr.onload = function (e) {
                    $('#ImagePreview').attr('src', e.target.result);
                }
                Filerdr.readAsDataURL(Imagepath.files[0]);
            }
        }
    </script>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>
        <asp:FileUpload ID="FilePreview" runat="server" onchange="PreviewImageBeforeUpload(this);" />
        <br />
        <asp:Image ID="ImagePreview" runat="server" Width="150px" Height="150px" />
        <asp:Button ID="btnSubmit" runat="server" Text="Upload" />
    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

The Method 2 is shown using the DXImageTransform filter CSS property in browsers that do not support HTML5 i.e. Internet Explorer 8 and 9.

Method 2:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head id="Head1" runat="server">
    <title>Preview image before upload using FileUpload control and jQuery in ASP.NET
    </title>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.3/jquery.min.js"></script>
    <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
        $(function () {
            $("#FilePreview").change(function () {
                $("#ImagePreview").html("");
                var regex = /^([a-zA-Z0-9\s_\\.\-:])+(.jpg|.jpeg|.gif|.png|.bmp)$/;
                if (regex.test($(this).val().toLowerCase())) {
                    if ($.browser.msie && parseFloat(jQuery.browser.version) <= 9.0) {
                        $("#ImagePreview").show();
                        $("#ImagePreview")[0].filters.item("DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader").src = $(this).val();
                    }
                    else {
                        $("#ImagePreview").show();
                        $("#ImagePreview").append("<img />");
                        var Filerdr = new FileReader();
                        Filerdr.onload = function (e) {
                            $("#ImagePreview img").attr("src", e.target.result);
                        }
                        Filerdr.readAsDataURL($(this)[0].files[0]);
                    }
                } else {
                    alert("Please upload a valid image file.");
                }
            });
        });
    </script>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>
        <asp:FileUpload ID="FilePreview" runat="server" />
        <br />
        <div id="ImagePreview" style="width: 150px; height: 150px">
        </div>
        <asp:Button ID="btnSubmit" runat="server" Text="Upload" />
    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>
