multi part mime requests
i am trying to set up file uploads using
<form ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" method="POST" action="addfile.xml">
and in addfile.xml, am using xsp's to break apart the httprequest object,
but so far, my multipart request only have the headers but when i start
reading the multipart boundaries, i start getting null, which means that the
multi-parts are not getting sent. is the request object on xsp's a standard
request object, or is the xsp processor striping down/adding to the request?
thanks,
RUm

Gabor,
I also am trying to use the o'reilly package. This is what i have in my
xml/xsl form:
<form ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data" method="POST" action="addfile.xml">
<input type="file">
<xsl:attribute name="name">
<xsl:value-of select="@name"/>
</xsl:attribute>
</input>
</form>
and here is my addfile.xml:
********************************************************************
<xsp:page
language="java"
xmlns:request="http://www.apache.org/1999/XSP/Request"
xmlns:util="http://www.apache.org/1999/XSP/Util"
xmlns:xsp="http://www.apache.org/1999/XSP/Core"
>
<xsp:structure>
<xsp:include>com.oreilly.servlet.MultipartRequest</xsp:include>
</xsp:structure>
<page>
<files>
<xsp:logic>
session = request.getSession(false);
MultipartRequest multi = new MultipartRequest(request, ".");
String name ="";
String filename = "";
String type = "";
Enumeration files = multi.getFileNames();
while (files.hasMoreElements())
{
<file>
String name = (String)files.nextElement();
<xsp:expr>name</xsp:expr>
String filename = multi.getFilesystemName(name);
<xsp:expr>filename</xsp:expr>
String type = multi.getContentType(name);
<xsp:expr>type</xsp:expr>
File f = multi.getFile(name);
</file>
}
</xsp:logic>
</files>
</page>
</xsp:page>
******************************************************************
i haven't done anything with the file yet, but you get the idea. i cannot
understand what i am doing wrong. any help would be appreciated

terribly unfortunately, most servlet engines cannot parse
multipart/form-data requests with their default HttpServletRequest impl.
oddly enough, code to do it manually is slightly hard to find on the 'net.
even more unfortunately, cocoon messes with the request object, so that
even if you found some code to do it for you, you're SOL since cocoon will
have already messed with the inputstream. moral of the story - if you want
to handle file uploads, do it in a standalone servlet or even easier, a
perl cgi, and use redirect to send user back to cocoon-land.

terribly unfortunately, most servlet engines cannot parse
multipart/form-data requests with their default HttpServletRequest impl.
oddly enough, code to do it manually is slightly hard to find on the 'net.
even more unfortunately, cocoon messes with the request object, so that
even if you found some code to do it for you, you're SOL since cocoon will
have already messed with the inputstream. moral of the story - if you want
to handle file uploads, do it in a standalone servlet or even easier, a
perl cgi, and use redirect to send user back to cocoon-land.
