How to get the latest filename in a specify directory in client's machine

Hi all,
I've created a web application which user need to input some text and upload a file to server, It's simple that user just need to browse the directory to select the file. submit the form to server then ........
However, after user's review and they prefer the system can upload the latest file in a directory in the cilent's computer (as all files are stored in the same directory) and upload to server after user click submit button automatically. User only input the text in the form, no need to search the picture in the computer (can save time) .
I understand that there has some security issue. but just want to know is it possible to do this?
The question I would like to ask is
Can Java (servlet / jsp) can get the latest file in a pre-defined directory in client's machine?
pls help
thanks a lot.
Kin.

JSP and servlets run on the server, not the client. The client receives the output of the JSP/servlet, usually as an HTML page. Your question is: can an HTML page read a directory on the user's computer. The answer is obvious: no, it can't.
You may be able to work around this problem with some kind of plug-in, but this would likely create more inconvenience for the user, not less.

  • How to get the latest credit limit values per each customer in the report.

    Hi All,
    Can anybody give me an idea on how to get the latest credit limit values per each customer in the report.
    I have below requiremnt.
    I have cube which is having transactional data on document and customer level .and it also having master data info object in the cube which is credit management view having all the customer numbers .
    This credit management view is master data info object having credit limit key figure as attribute.These credit limit are per each customer.
    So we need these credit limits in the report as dynamic values .(I mean whatever be the current credit limit in the master data table for that paricular customer that should show up in the reporting).
    one more thing these credit limits should roll up correctly at the HTR level.
    One HTR having number of customers .
    for example HTR 100 can have customer number 200,300,400.
    Those 200,300,400 customer credit limits should roolup correctly at the HTR 100 level.
    Example below :
    Cube DATA :
    HTR Customer Doct number Credit managment view
    100 200 10001 200
    100 200 10002 200
    100 300 10004 300
    100 300 10005 300
    100 400 10006 400
    100 400 10007 400
    100 400 10008 400
    Master data tabel (P Table)(Credit managment view)
    Credit managment view Credit limits
    200 1000.00
    300 50000.00
    400 90000.00
    Please remeber :
    We can not make these credit limits as navigational becasue these are keyfigure attributes not characteristics.
    one more thing we can not make them as charatistics because we need use these credit limits to derive other calkculation. so it is not possibel to derive calculations on charactristics .

    Create a formula variable of type replacement path with reference as attibutes of Credit management view and choose your key figure credit limit,say zcredit.
    Now create a formula or CKF and use zcredit.
    This should display the credit limit in your report as normal key figure.
    I didnot get this part "one more thing these credit limits should roll up correctly at the HTR level.", may be the above will solve this too.Try it.
    Hope this helps.

  • Master Child tables how to get the latest rows from both

    Hi,
    Need some help with the sql. I have two tables Master & Child. In my Master table I have multiple rows for the same record and in the child table also multiple rows for the same master row how can I get the latest one's from both.
    For example Data in my Master table looks like
    CONT_ID                  SEQ_NUM        DESCRIPTION
    1                         189             Update 2
    1                         188             Update 1
    1                         187              NewNow in the child table for the same CONT_ID I may have the following rows
    CONT_ID                   UPDATED_DATE                                     STATUS
    1                        3/16/2010 2:19:01.552700 PM                          P
    1                        3/16/2010 12:29:01.552700 PM                         A
    1                        3/16/2010 12:29:01.552700 PM                         P
    1                        3/16/2010 12:19:01.552700 PM                         NIn my final query how can I get the row with seq_num 189 as it's the latest in Master table and from child table the row with status of P as it's the latest one based on the time. Here is the query i have but it returns the latest row from the child table only and basically repeats the master table rows as opposed to one row that is latest from both:
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You can use the analytic ROW_NUMKBER function to find the latest row for each cont_id in each table:
    WITH     got_m_rnum     AS
         SELECT     cont_id,     seq_num,     description
         ,     ROW_NUMBER () OVER ( PARTITION BY  cont_id
                                   ORDER BY          seq_num     DESC
                           ) AS m_rnum
         FROM    master_table
    --     WHERE     ...     -- any filtering goes here
    ,     got_c_rnum     AS
         SELECT     cont_id, updated_date,     status
         ,     ROW_NUMBER () OVER ( PARTITION BY  cont_id
                                   ORDER BY          updated_date     DESC
                           ) AS c_rnum
         FROM    child_table
    --     WHERE     ...     -- any filtering goes here
    SELECT     m.cont_id,     m.seq_num,     m.description
    ,     c.updated_date,     c.status
    FROM     got_m_rnum     m
    JOIN     got_c_rnum     c     ON     m.cont_id     = c.cont_id
                        AND     m.m_rnum     = c.c_rnum
                        AND     m.m_rnum     = 1
    ;If you'd like to post CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for the sample data, then I could test this.
    If there happens to be a tie for the latest row (say, there are only two rows in the child_table with a certain cont_id, and both have exactly the same updated_date), then this query will arbitrarily choose one of them as the latest.

  • How to get the specific filename

    Hi..
    I want to get the specific file where the filename contains current date like "asd.11.20051226.03.dat". Then, i want to write the filename to a text file.
    Now, i only know how to get the list of file in a specific directory& write the whole list to a text file. How to filter the list of filename because they have "dot" in their name?

    To determine if a string contains a dot:I have a feeling that about 10 seconds after he figures out whether the filename contains a dot he's going to need to look a little deeper to determine whether he found wakka.wrongfile.txt or 11.20.1980.the.file.hes.looking.for.data. Maybe?

  • Urgent !!!  How to get the Latest Exchange Rate from a list

    Helo Gurus,
    I want to get the latest exchange rate for all currencies in BI 7.0. Now when I checked in the table its showing all the exchange rates for various currencies according to the date. My client want the latest exchange rate in the report for all currencies. Now when I generating the currencies into the report the rate getting cumulated.
    For certain currencies the rate is updated very recently. But for others two months back.
    <b>How it is possible to take only the latest exchange rate for all currencies and can generate the report.</b>
    I am working in BI 7.0 and the BEx using is of version 3.5.

    Mathew,
    usually the currenies and other settings will be loaded nightly, but in your case if you want it urgently you can do this.
    RSA1->Source System>Transfer Exchange Rates. This will open up a screen with two options Simulation and Update. You can verify with SImulation and needed you can update. It will not create any issues.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to get the latest and valid BOM item entry from STPO

    hi,
    may i know with what condition we can get the latest and valid BOM item entry from STPO table?
    i have STLNR and IDNRK as a input. But i realized that it would return multiple entry due to the combination of  valid-from and valid till date.
    can i use stlnr,idnrk and stpoz (with the latet counter) to get the latest and valid BOM entry?
    thank you.
