FileUpload control.
FileUpload control's PostedFile property value type is System.Web.HttpPostedFile which represents an HttpPostedFile for a file uploaded by using the FileUpload control. this property allow us to access additional properties on the uploaded file.
.net developers can use the ContentLength property to get the length of the file. the ContentLength property is used to determine the length of the file before copying the file contents to a byte array. we can access ContentLength property as FileUpload.PostedFile.ContentLength.
