You are currently viewing the Servlets section of the Wrox Programmer to Programmer discussions. This is a community of software programmers and website developers including Wrox book authors and readers. New member registration was closed in 2019. New posts were shut off and the site was archived into this static format as of October 1, 2020. If you require technical support for a Wrox book please contact http://hub.wiley.com
I would use the Apache Commons FileUpload library to do it: http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/fileupload/. It provides a way for your servlets to parse out the uploaded documents to retrieve the documents' file names, sizes, and contents.
