Drag and Drop using ASP.net and jquery

Question

I try to create a drag and drop feature for avatar images. I want the files that someone drags into the box; get uploaded to a directory: '/images/profile/$username'.

This is my code:

<div class='fileDrop'>
    <span id='fileDropTarget'>Drag your files here</span>
</div>

<script>
    function fileSetUploadPercent(percent) {
        var uploadString = "Uploaded " + percent + " %";
        $('#fileDropTarget').text(uploadString);
    }

    function fileUploadStarted(index, file, files_count) {
        fileSetUploadPercent(0); //set the upload status to be 0
    }

    function fileUploadUpdate(index, file, currentProgress) {
        var string = "index = " + index + " Uploading file " + file.fileName + " size is " + file.fileSize + " Progress = " + currentProgress;
        $('#status').text(string);
        fileSetUploadPercent(currentProgress);
    }

    function fileUploadFinished(index, file, json, timeDiff) {
        fileSetUploadPercent(100);
        $('#fileDropTarget').css('border', '2px dotted #000000').text("Upload Voltooid");
    }

    function fileDragLeave(event) {
        $('#fileDropTarget').css('border', '2px dotted #000000').text("Sleep uw foto hierin");
    }

    function fileDragOver(event) {
        $('#fileDropTarget').css('border', '2px dashed #000000').text("Sleep uw foto hierin");
    }

    $(".fileDrop").filedrop({

        fallback_id: 'fallbackFileDrop',
        url: '/controls/upload.ascx',

        allowedfiletypes: ['image/jpeg', 'image/png', 'image/gif'],   // filetypes allowed by Content-Type.  Empty array means no restrictions
        allowedfileextensions: ['.jpg', '.jpeg', '.png', '.gif'], // file extensions allowed. Empty array means no restrictions
        //    refresh: 1000,
        paramname: 'fileUpload',        // POST parameter name used on serverside to reference file, can also be a function taking the filename and returning the paramname
        maxfiles: 1,                    // Ignored if queuefiles is set > 0
        maxfilesize: 10,                // MB file size limit
        //    queuefiles: 0,            // Max files before queueing (for large volume uploads)
        //    queuewait: 200,           // Queue wait time if full
        //    data: {},
        //    headers: {},
        //    drop: empty,
        //    dragEnter: empty,
        dragOver: fileDragOver,
        dragLeave: fileDragLeave,
        //  docEnter: empty,
        //  docOver: fileDocOver,
        //  docLeave: fileDocLeave,
        //  beforeEach: empty,
        //  afterAll: empty,
        //  rename: empty,

        error: function (err, file) {
            switch (err) {
                case 'BrowserNotSupported':
                    $('#fileDropTarget').css('border', '2px dashed #FF0000').text('Uw browser wordt niet gesupport');
                    break;
                case 'TooManyFiles':
                    $('#fileDropTarget').css('border', '2px dashed #FF0000').text('U kunt maar 1 foto tegelijk uploaden');
                    break;
                case 'FileTooLarge':
                    $('#fileDropTarget').css('border', '2px dashed #FF0000').text('Uw foto is groter dan 10MB');
                    break;
                case 'FileTypeNotAllowed':
                    $('#fileDropTarget').css('border', '2px dashed #FF0000').text('Alleen fotos zijn toegestaan');
                    break;
                case 'FileExtensionNotAllowed':
                    $('#fileDropTarget').css('border', '2px dashed #FF0000').text('Alleen fotos zijn toegestaan');
                    break;
                default:
                    $('#fileDropTarget').css('border', '2px dashed #FF0000').text(err);
                    break;
            }
        },
        uploadStarted: fileUploadStarted,
        uploadFinished: fileUploadFinished,
        progressUpdated: fileUploadUpdate
    });

</script>

But everytime I try to upload a file; I get the error: 'Not Found'. The other problem is that I want to upload these files with a asp.net control and a POST request. I dont know how to add a file to a FileUploadControl; and I have no idea how to get the file from the dragfield the upload control.

    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        string filetype = Request.QueryString["fileType"];
        string filename = Request.QueryString["fileUpload"];
        FileUpload FileUploadControl = new FileUpload();
        string location = "~/upload";
        try
        {
            if (filetype == "avatar") location = "images/profile/";
            FileUploadControl.SaveAs(Server.MapPath("~/") + location + filename);
            LabelStatus.Text = "Upload status: File uploaded!";
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            LabelStatus.Text = "Upload status: The file could not be uploaded. The following error occured: " + ex.Message;
        }
    }

Thank you in advanced.
