Did you read the JspFaq entry on file uploading?

If not, please do so and try writing some code.

Then post the code here if you are having problems with it. You will not be given the code.

'Bear Bibeault' Thank you for giving me the reply. but i am designing a code for SHOPPING CART application.. It has to do everything dynamically...
If we save the images in WEB_INF folder, then the user cant always store images in that folder..

I heard that there is a code to convert images into binary format and store in the database.

I dont know the process correctly..Please help me

Why? Can you give examples of when user can and when can't store?
Also I don't understand the need of saving/storing user images in a shopping cart application.

Have you heard of BLOB data type as well?
