Hi all,

I am trying to save an image from a Servlet like this:



It works well in this case but I want to save the pics in a folder called pics inside the WebPages folder like this:



Any idea, please?

Regards, Isaac

why do you want to save it in the webpages folder ?
Consider this, you want to deploy a new war to the server, what is going to happen ?

By the way, you might want to look at ServletContext.getRealPath() method.

Saving anything into the web context is a really bad idea as has already been pointed out. It will create many problems when redeploying. Save any files outside the web context.
