my aim is to keep some important html pages in the database.the file size can vary.the file has to be selected from a local machine (through the browser) and uploaded to a remote machine(where the databse resides).

When uploading a file, I use a byte array as a temporary buffer..
So, you should then be able to store the byte array in the
database as binary data.
example>
//Temporary Buffer To Store File
byte[] tmpbuffer = new byte[860];
//Some Code To Upload File...
//File Should Now Be In Byte Array
//Get DB Connection and execute Prepared Statement
Connection con=//GET DB CONNECTION;
String sql=insert into TABLE(page) values(?);
PreparedStatement ps=con.prepareStatement(sql);
ps.setBytes(1,tempbuffer);
ps.executeUpdate();
//Close PS and Free DB Connection
..... and this method looks like you dont even have
to store the file in a byte array, you can just give
it the input stream.
ps.setBinaryStream(int, inputStream, int);
You may have to make several attempts at this. I have
uploaded a file and temporarily stored it in a byte array,
but have never from there stored it in the DB as binary
data.. but this looks like it'll work.
Good Luck!
