Upload an Image file

[varkala prabhakar]

Hai all,
i have a problem with uploading the image file.
In my html file i use the tag like
<input type=file name=image> and in my servlet getParameter("image") , i get the path of the file and this works fine for my local system, but i want the file to be uploaded even from client machines.
can any one help me how to modify my html and servlet program so that i can store the image in my java web server.
thanks
prabhakar.

1. Are you specifying in your HTML form that the enctype="multipart/form-data"
2. Are you specifying that the method="post"
3. out of the box, HTTPRequest doesn't understand a multipart/form-data submission, so are you using a home-made solution to parse the request appropriately, or do you have a package like com.oreilly.servlet?

You can use the jspsmartupload package. It has the code for uploading images. http://www.jspsmart.com
