JSP Modal Dialog

Question

Hi, I need to get the file name (set path) in a text box. So, I need to POP UP the file browser window and then the file I select should be visible in the text box and send this value to the backend bean. How can I do this ?

Answer 1

This isn't a JSP specific question. This is normal HTML behaviour.

<form action="blah" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file">
</form>

The hard bit is processing the uploading file, I would suggest you should look at Apache Commons FileUpload.
