Hi Eric,
You're correct you'll have to run the file upload method as a thread for
this to work.
Another way of doing it is as follows :
I. 1st page - gather all info and submit to 2nd page
II. 2nd page - display "Please wait" message and submit info from 1st page
to background process ( in our case fileUpload)
once background process is completed 2nd page will automatically redirect to
III. 3rd page display successive message.
Regards,
Dimitar

Do you have a reference for this? I think that the servlet request
may not be initiated until the client request completes the upload.
Otherwise any variables stored after the files in the form would not be
accessible until after the upload. (i.e.. the upload is part of the
POST transaction, and is basically "done" by the time the servlet is
invoked.)
