Sending file via http protocol

[ricky gonzalez]

Hi, I was wondering how do I send a file through a browser dialog box? After the user selected the file to be submited from an applet, how do I receive the file from the server side?
Thanks.

I haven't tried it but have read that you can use a servlet with the following basic code.

      try
      {
 BufferedReader in = request.getReader();
         String line = null;
         while((line = in.readLine()) != null)
         {
              //do what you want with each line save to an output file etc.
         }
         in.close();
      }
      catch(Exception e)
      {
          
      }

request is the HttpServletRequest object in your dopost(), doget() or service() method of your servlet.
Give it a try and let me know how it works out.
Good Luck
