I have a form with id="form1" inside this form i have a graph.Now i am using html2canvas to get the image of this form1.Here is my code..

<script type="text/javascript">

      $(document).ready(function () {
          $('#add_button').click(function () {
              alert("hiii");
              $('form1').html2canvas();
              var queue = html2canvas.Parse();
              var canvas = html2canvas.Renderer(queue, { elements: { length: 1} });
              var img = canvas.toDataURL();
              window.open(img);
              alert("Hello");
          });
      });

  </script>

<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div style="padding-left:150px">
  <asp:Literal ID="FCLiteral1" runat="server"></asp:Literal>
</div>
<div style="padding-left:350px"><b>Demo</b></div>
</form>

 <input type="submit" id="add_button" value="Take Screenshot Of Div" " />

So my question is how can i save this image into my system hardisk..Please help me.

System hardisk? I did not understand, server or client?

CLIENT

If you want the user to download the image automatically, you will need to modify the Data URI scheme

Try this:

Add in css

#myHideFrame {
    position: absolute;
    top: -9999px;
    width: 1px;
    height: 1px;
}

Add in Javascript

var img = canvas.toDataURL();
var frame = document.getElementById("myHideFrame");
if(!frame) {
    frame = document.createElement("iframe");
    frame.id = "myHideFrame";
    document.body.appendChild(frame);
}
frame.src = img.replace(/^data[:]image\/(png|jpg|jpeg)[;]/i, "data:application/octet-stream;");

Unfortunately this example does not show the name, for this you will have to do something like this (user need click in link):

var img = canvas.toDataURL();
var link = document.createElement("a");
link.download = "photo.png"; //Setup name file
link.href = img.replace(/^data[:]image\/(png|jpg|jpeg)[;]/i, "data:application/octet-stream;");
document.body.appendChild(link);

SERVER

If you want to save on the server then you need to use Ajax, example with Jquery:

Javascript file:

var img = canvas.toDataURL().replace(/^data[:]image\/(png|jpg|jpeg)[;]base64,/i, "");
$.ajax({
    "type": "POST",
    "url": "upload.aspx/UploadImage",
    "data": { 
        "imageData": img //Send to WebMethod
    }
}).done(function(o) {
    console.log(["Response:" , o]); 
});

Your upload.aspx.cs file need:

...
[WebMethod()]
public static void UploadImage(string imageData)
{
    string fileNameWitPath = "custom_name.png";
    using (FileStream fs = new FileStream(fileNameWitPath, FileMode.Create))
    {
        using (BinaryWriter bw = new BinaryWriter(fs))
        {
            byte[] data = Convert.FromBase64String(imageData);//convert from base64
            bw.Write(data);
            bw.Close();
        }
    }
}
...
