I'm writing a servlet where the client is supposed to
feed data in order to create a web shop owned and run
by the client.
(Form) data as "what's the name of the product?",
"what's the product number?", "what's the price?"
etc are easy to transfer to the DB and return as
part of the client's FrontStore pages to his/her customers.
But when it comes to "add a picture of the product" I'm
in real trouble...
...the gifs and jpegs are located on the client's harddisk
and I'm of course not allowed to transfer a e.g. .gif-file
from the localhost to 'my' server!
As I have seen many times on the web that it's possible to
present all my own directories, subdirectories and files
(browse...) for a choice I just wonder: How do they do it?
And can it be built-in in a servlet?
-dan
PS Of course, I could ask my clients to transfer the files
via ftp but that seems to be too much ask...isn't it?
