How To Upload Files from Clients' Machine?
In my JSP I have this:
code:
-------------------------------------------------------
<input type="file" name="filename">
-------------------------------------------------------
for visitors of the web page to browse their PCs'
directories to select a file to upload (when the
Submit button is clicked). The files can be .doc,
.txt, .pdf, .jpg, ..., etc. However, I do not have to
convert files into certain format. I simply retrieve
them from clients' machine and store them into a
database. Later on, clients can ask to view those
files in their original format.
What appears in the text field:
<input type="file" name="filename">
will be a file name. How do I get both the file name
and the content of that file to be saved in the
database?

Make sure you've set the enctype attribute on your form tag to be
"multipart/form-data"

There's more to file upload than just getting the <input> element
right. As usual, Google has links to lots of useful information:
