HTML code to browse and attach files

[rrkrishna24]

Can someone guide how to code in simple HTML, how to browse the files and attach them. That is, when I click a button say "Attach", a window should be opened with which one can browse the files in one's machine and attach them.

I tried to search for the HTML code to accomplish this in Google, but couldnt find any.

Lots of thanks in advance,
Rama

JUst found that we can use the HTML <input> tag <input type="file" name="datafile" >.

Can someone tell me, using servlets, how this can be received and saved on the server side?

You must ask that question in the appropriate programming board.

Hi rrkrishna,

That question needs to be directed to the ASP, PHP, or ColdFusion boards (depending on a few different criteria - what your server supports, what operating system it runs, and what you want done with the file e.g. stored in a database or file system, and how you want it manipulated).

If you have a Microsoft Windows server then ask your question in the ASP forum and we'll try and help you out.

Best regards,
