Does anyone know where i can use Jakarta Commons FileUpload package for
uploading excel and pdf file?

using Jakarta Commons FileUpload package with my form
ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data", i am able to upload .txt and .zip.
However, i encountered error when uploading excel and pdf.

Like to find out is it because Jakarta Commons FileUpload package
doesn't support uploading of excel and pdf file or is it because there
might be some problem with my code

Thanks

FileUpload can upload any file. It basically uploads
a sequence of bytes. It does not care what the content are.

May we see some code ?

Hi Arne,

Add to that i am also using NetComponents class. My purpose is to
create a Web Based ftp to upload the file to the ftp server. So far i
can only upload .txt and .zip. If i upload other file using
ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data". I will receive some error.

Thanks for replying my posting.
