You need to send the HTTP POST request using the multipart/form-data encoding. In other words, the POST body should be in multipart MIME format. If you're using an HTTP library to construct the request it probably already has built in support for this. Otherwise you'll need to read up on the details of submitting multipart/form-data formatted requests.

But if I were to have my java program do the Post job, How do I specify the
file details?

You can't upload a document using a GET request.  Stick with your HTTP post
form.

Hello,

I am using Struts Upload. I want to understand the intricacies of using File upload using Struts. In our JSP/ HTML, we use a form with enctype ="multipart/form-data" and the HTML - file to upload a file using HTTP post.

Now, If I were to spcify the same request in the Browser;s address bar, what should it be?
http://localhost:20000/myApp/uploadDocument.do?name=myFile&file=test.t
xt&enc
type=multipart/form-data

My Action form has the field : name and file.
