Ok, Andy. This is the scenario: User navigates to send.html page---user clicks 'browse' button to find the file to be sent----user clicks 'send' button---the mail sends out the file with email.
The problem with the jsp program I have right now is when user click 'send', the file is uploaded to the server then sent out. It will not be allowed with our new clustered servers. Yes, I am taking the route you mentioned in your message: sends the file from client's machine as an email attachment. Can you throw some light on this? Some websites? Or sample codes?
