System.Windows does not work with WEB

If you want to show openfile dialog, why don't you use the old html way i.e. <input type= file .....
after all you have to show the dialog on the client browser and it has nothing to do with the server (at least at that point...).

On web you can brows client's file system with the dialog. but for server's file system (not recommended for security reasons) you have to to code and build your own dialog window.


hope this helps...
