Uploading file to jsp/servlet

[David Wall]

Does anybody have any Java examples of processing an HTML form that includes a FILE as input?  My limited understanding is that the FORM ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" needs to be set, but I'm unsure how to get at the file from my JSP/Servlet.   I have a simple sample upload for a file, and I can easily get the form elements by name using the request.getParameterValues() method, but if you use that on the file element, you get the name of the file as it was called on the client's computer.  It doesn't have the file's contents.   Then, I tried looking at the content-length, but it was small (only 87 bytes in my case), so I know it is not showing the contents of the file either.  I suspect it has to do with the multi-part MIME file, and perhaps the servlet is only capable of handing a single-part form.    How do I get at the FILE's contents that should have been uploaded?   Thanks, David --------------------------------------------- David A.
