javascript cannot check for a file, you have two options imho: write an applet that interfaces with the client app - maybe the applet starts to listen on localhost:10000 and the java client app connects to that port and sends the image over the tcp connection, or do the file thing you are talking about. the applet can then put the image data into a hidden form field.
the other option is to make the authentication process be done completely in the java app which then opens the browser to a url and passes in everything as a post or a get request. -igor On Wed, Feb 11, 2009 at 3:04 PM, jsinger66 <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hi > > I am developing a Wicket application that needs to interface with a client > side java application.
