I want to upload image along with data from jsp form. Then send these values to servlet. My code for jsp form is as following:
<form action="AddController" method="post" name="addform" id="addform" >
Name : <input type="text" name="myname">
Image : <input type="file" accept="image/*" name="file">
<input type="submit" name="add" id="add" value="Save"/>
</form>
The code for servlet is as following. The code :
protected void doPost(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws ServletException, IOException {
String add=request.getParameter("add");
if(add!=null) {
String name =request.getParameter("myname");
System.out.println(myname);
String SAVE_DIR = "C:/uploadFiles";
// gets absolute path of the web application
String appPath = request.getServletContext().getRealPath("");
// constructs path of the directory to save uploaded file
String savePath = SAVE_DIR;
// creates the save directory if it does not exists
File fileSaveDir = new File(savePath);
if (!fileSaveDir.exists()) {
fileSaveDir.mkdir();
}
for (Part part : request.getParts()) {
String fileName = extractFileName(part);
part.write(savePath + File.separator + fileName);
}
request.setAttribute("message", "Upload has been done successfully!");
getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/addsuccessful.jsp").forward(
request, response);
}
}
/**
* Extracts file name from HTTP header content-disposition
*/
private String extractFileName(Part part) {
String contentDisp = part.getHeader("content-disposition");
String[] items = contentDisp.split(";");
for (String s : items) {
if (s.trim().startsWith("filename")) {
return s.substring(s.indexOf("=") + 2, s.length()-1);
}
}
return "";
}
I get the name value from text box. But image is not uploaded. When I add enctype="multipart/form-data" in form then I am not getting name value. How to solve this issue????
