i'm using FileUpload to upload a file in my aplication, like this:

<form name=datos method="post" enctype='multipart/form-data' action="/Juez/Juez/RecogerArchivo">

my problem is that i want to recieve some data about the user, name, and other parameters, like this (in the form)

<input type="text" name="nombre">
<input type="text" name="apellidos">

but in my servlet, when i do

  request.getParameter("nombre");

return null. this is because i'm using multipart/form-data, isn't it?

how can i resolve it?

thx!

P.D: excuse for my poor english

You're correct that you cannot read these properties because you're using multipart/form-data. In order to read these parameters, you have to have a special handler. Fortunately, there's many already available on the web. I recommend Apache Commons FileUpload (http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/fileupload/). I also use it for my own projects :).
