file path on upload file objects

It turns out that while firefox correctly passes the name of the file the client is trying to upload, both IE6 and IE7 pass the entire path from the clients machine to the server.

You can easily get the filename by just going through the string, using a loop, in my case a for loop.

First off this is the string that I get back from IE6 & 7:
"C:\\tempDir\\file.temp"

Here's my for loop to only grab the file name itself.

public static string getFileNameFromPath(string path)
{
string fileName= "";
for (int i = 0; i < path.Length; i++)
{
if (path[i] != '\\')
fileName += path[i];
else
fileName = "";
}
return fileName;
}
