Hi FTP (nice name),

multipart/form-data doesn't send the value as query string parameters (not a
normal post such as application/url-encoded). You can't just do a
request.getParameter("someparameter") for a multipart/form-data POST.

Try checking out various file upload libraries (oreilly.com has one, as well
as file-upload). This isn't Tomcat specific.

Subject: jsp page with enctype="MULTIPART/FORM-DATA"


Hi,

Hi there,

when I add the following: enctype="MULTIPART/FORM-DATA"

in a FORM element in a jsp page, then the values of the FORM parameters
doesn't get propagated to the action servelet!!!! The servlet receives
nulls only!!! If i skip the enctype="MULTIPART/FORM-DATA" in the FORM,
everything (the parameters do retain their values!) works fine! Any
explanation???

I need this modification in order to include file upload capabilities
into my servlet!

Thanks
