image uploading and selection an image from many images?

[Rahul Noel]

Hi,
How to select an image from many images on mouse click,selected image should be display like in yahoo messenger avatars which technology I have to use and how to upload an image using jsp ?

ou want images from the user's machine to show up in a form and than upload them to the server? You can not do that with HTML and JavaScript since it does not have access to the file system.

You would need to look into an applet or flash solution.

Hi Eric,
Another thing is I have to select an image in a jsp which has many images on mouse click selected image should be displayed in a particular place in JSP just like gtalk display images. How to do it? please give me any pseudo code or url or example ?

You mean like an image gallery?

You can change the source of the image. Very basic idea:

function foo( newImage ){
  document.getElementById("yourImg").src = newImage;
}
