Attachment file

I want to provide file attachment functionality in my application with this help i could be able to submit files on the web how can i implement this functionality in core java .

I don't think core java has such functionality. You probably have to look into jee or use some third party apis like apache commons.

Check out HttpClient. The server needs to have a servlet, JSP page, PHP page, etc that can handle the uploaded files.

Moving to Sockets and Internet Protocols since it's not directly related to user interfaces, other than the JFileChooser you may need to select the files.
