Hi David,

Given the brief outline of your requirements, personally and just my opinion I would 
look at Jakarta-Slide or OpenCMS. I believe both could fulfill your requirements; 
although its been 2 years since I evaluated OpenCMS (hopefully my memory isn't failing 
me on there's document management and search features in addition to the 
"in-the-browser" editor.) I know Slide has the features, slide-user mailing list is an 
excellent resource to find out more.

Back to your original question regarding FileUpload (caveat - I don't work on 
FileUpload - just trying to help with what I know of it.) FileUpload is server 
component to efficiently handle the base64 encoded stream the application server 
receives in a multipart/form-data http post. AFAIK there's no client part; the most 
common use case is to have a html form tag and onen or more input of type file:

<form name="myForm" action="" ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" method="post">
<input type="file" name="myFile" size="25" value="">

I think if your looking for more advanced FileDialog than what you get with html's 
input type=file; then you would look at signed applets or ActiveX controls. I used to 
use this one http://www.infomentum.com/appletfile/ with Coldfusion 4.5 application 
server, but I'd imagine tomcat works as well. There are a bunch of these out there; 
maybe sf.net has open source open licensed one(s)?

HTH,
TR

One last note; the commons mailing list protocol is to prefix the email subject with 
the component name as I've done here.
