I'm using the following to convert an image to a base64 encoded string. On the client website in javascript:
var reader = new FileReader();
reader.onloadend = function () {
data64 = reader.result;
};
reader.readAsDataURL(myFile);
Now I pass this data to the server, which does the following:
var data = Convert.FromBase64String(data64);
However this results in a format exception:
The format of s is invalid. s contains a non-base-64 character, more than two padding characters, or a non-white space-character among the padding characters.
My input file is one of the sample images found on Windows 7 -> My Pictures/Sample Pictures/Tulips.jpeg
How can I attempt to debug what is causing the problem for such a large result output?
