Subject: Processing Uploaded Files
I'm looking for sample code on handling multipart/form-data.
For instance, consider the following form.
<form method=post action=myservlet enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input name=description type=text>
<input name=myfile type=file>
<input name=submit type=submit>
</form>
I want myservlet to extract the name, description, mimetype, etc.
of the file for storage in a database. And then I want to extract
the contents of the file and store it on the server in its original
form (e.g. not mime encoded).
I tried the usual getParameter... methods and they return nothing.
I'm guessing since the data is not arriving in the usual
application/x-www-form-urlencoded form. Unfortunately, I don't
seem to be able to find analogous methods for multipart/form-data.
Please help.
Thanks,
John
