JSP : latest JSTL, File Upload from web form Client to Server Question!

I understand that within a JSP, It is possible to read a file from the Client by opening a Stream somehow.
How do I code, within jsp/servlet (non tag) java code inside <% %>
blocks, WITHOUT openening a new connection to the URL, an InputStream from a client web browser form, from a file upload coded using
<input type="file" name="file1"/> ?
I have previously achieved this quite simply with a FileInputStream
with the previous version of JSTL.
How may I do this with the latest version of JSTL, with this index.jsp?
-with a simple text file.
-with a Binary file (with DataInputStream)?

If I have:

<form name="form1" method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input name="file1" type="file"/>
<input name="submit1" type="submit" value="Submit" action="index.jsp"/>
</form>

and run this in an index.jsp, use browse to select my text file, and click SUBMIT.
I can use:
InputStreamReader reader = new InputStreamReader(new DataInputStream(request.getInputStream()))
BufferedReader bufferedReader = new BufferedReader(reader);
bufferedReader.readLine();...
However, these is some HTML/POST related content around what multiple readLine();
calls return.
Is there an easy way, like using "${param.file1}",
aside from [http://commons.apache.org/fileupload/|http://commons.apache.org/fileupload/],
maybe using servlet style code, to get the File contents from a remote Client,
to the remote Server servlet engine, AVOIDING ANY SUPERFLUOUS CONTENT,
using version 1.12 of the JSTL, JSP 2.0,Tomcat 6?
Just politely, yes, no, and how?

File Upload from Webdynpro to R/3 Server

Hi all
We have a scenario. In that we want to upload any type of file (can be .txt, .pdf, .doc, .xls, .jpg, .gif etc.) to the R/3 server. We r using a FileUpload UI Element.
The problem is we want to pass the contents of the file (any type of file) to the rfc.
If anybody knows the solution for this please help us.
(It will be of great help if u give the code)
Thanks & Regards
Aparnna

Hi Aparna,
It happens becuse u r trying to access the byte array of the file in a loop.
For small file it will not make any pblm, but for for big files, the loop may have to iterate millions of times which result in server hang.
So dont try to access the byte array in loop in ur code. Try to pass the byte array u r getting as whole to RFC.

Attaching files to a web form

please tell me how to attach files to a web form for uploading. i know how to make a page that just uploads a file. but before i do it, i have to attach files( sent by a pop-up window ) to a web form in a main window. There are some resources about uploading files, but not for attaching files to a web form... please help me...
Thanks in advance...

I gotcha!
Try this:
1) Open new window with file inputs within a std form.
2) Have form submit to servlet
3) Have servlet retrieve file(s) and save them in session.
4) Have servlet spit out javascript to close popup window and refresh main page (which will then show some sort of verification that the files were received.
5) When main form is submitted, retireve (and remove) files from the session and process.
Hope that helps,

How to change/set the browser title from web forms (XP platform with SP2)

I am running Form9i, I have set the browser windows title from Web Forms dynamically by using following method. However, when my PC has changed to XP, the function seems not work. Does anybody have same problem and how to solve it? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Add the Javascript code to your baseHTML file. For example,
if you are using the basejini.htm:
<HEAD><TITLE>%pageTitle%</TITLE>
<script language="javascript1.2" type="text/javascript1.2">
function Change(a) { document.title=a; } </script>
</HEAD>
In web Forms , call the javascript function with WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT built.
For Example the following code set the browser title with username . web.show_document('javascript:Change('||'"'|| get_application_property(USERNAME)||'"'||')','_self');
Best Regards,
Bowie

Dear Frank,
Thanks for your reply. Can you tell me in detail which built-in function in Webutil can set value in browser title ?
Btw, is it possible for me to set parameter "separateFrame=True" in formsweb.cfg and set the form window title by using SET_WINDOW_PROPERTY(FORMS_MDI_WINDOW,TITLE,v_msg_string)?
Best Regards,
Bowie

File Upload in a Form

I have a file upload in a form of mine.
I can't style the upload to match the rest of my form. I have tried to target the id="FileAttachment" to no avail. I have tried adding classes and nothing responds.
In Dreamweaver it shows as styled until it gets on the web.
Here is the site: http://ubhape2remodel.businesscatalyst.com/careers
Any Advice?
Thanks!

Thanks for the information.
I cannot get it to work and I am unsure why. I am not sure if I am not using the JS right or not adding something to the css. I am a bit confused.
I am not all that good at javascript so I assume something here is off and I am just missing it.
One other note: Is it possible to use my style of buttons and not an image (I would like the hover effect that I use on the buttons to apply to that one as well.) But not sure how this can be done or if it is possible.
Any help would be very very much appreciated.

Audit Intersection fails from Web Form

We have an HFM 9.3.1 application successfully integrated with FDM 9.3.1, in that when navigating to a base level intersection, which has been loaded by FDM, the audit intersection option allows a drill-through analysis to the correct FDM application / location.
This feature works perfectly OK from right clicking a grid intersection and selecting Audit Intersection. However, if a web form is used to display the same intersection and the user selects Audit Intersection the following error message is generated :-
System Error "The signed on token is no longer valid" the web screen also displays an error stating there are localization errors and that the action is empty or missing.
Repeatedly performing the same operation from data grids and web forms results in the web form audit always failing and grid audit always succeeding.
Looking at the URL parameters I can see that the two sets of actions sent to generate the FDM audit page are indeed different
I have included the source "action" parameter from the IntersectionSummarybyLocation web page. (With line breaks to aid readability)
Repeated successful Grid Audit
action="IntersectionSummaryByLocation.aspx?
SSO_TOKEN=NbD9qzBZXx%2B%2BFm%2BFySzSa7uCWdYLvOAI14GJ6%2B7kFhWT2YN4lvlRfQExBNUyOMBkvAX1%2F3sfkyyu%0A3Ej8JSWj14o4Gf380eNrEeCax4fMVO28wUniiwcCepjkb6kvNhLCsKc%2FEmTctCxxd1lUmGcnalfO%0Avmc7rwQyxBAu8FtPnrtmy5REje4Epw%3D%3D&

It would appear that the format for characters is different and the SSO_TOKEN is differrent (although this maybe by design since the calling locations are different).
I have checked that the Grid and Web Form operations are calling the same web page encoding of Unicode (UTF-8).
Anybody got any idea why FORM functionality is failing to display the Audit Intersection?
Kind regards
Colin
Edited by: Colin Lye on Sep 15, 2011 6:26 AM

Applied Patches 9.3.1.1 thru to 9.3.1.4 (latest).
Problem resolved. Audit Intersections now work from both Grid and Forms.
Incidentally, both "Action" parameters from Grid and Form are now identical including the SSO_Token.

"Import from Text File" & "Upload from Clipboard" icon not appearng in F110

Hi Experts,
While making the payment to the vendors through TN F110, in "PARAMETER" screen just next to 'STATUS' screen, there is a vendor field for selection in range and just ahead of this there is an icon for multiple vendor selection ( Bold arrow mark ). If I click on that multiple vender selection icon ( on bold arrow mark ), an another screen opens for multiple selection for vendors. In this screen 'Enter, Copy, Delete etc' icons are appearing at the bottom of the screen but "Import from Text File" & "Upload from Clipboard" icon are not appearing there.
Can you please let me know how to bring that icons there?
Points would be awarded.
Rgds,
Shailesh

Hi Ravi,
I have not yet created anything and have just entered the parameter. In the multiple screen for vendors there are 5 fields for individual and 5 for range selection. Even you can put more than five range selections or individual selections by clicking on the page button but there I am not finding these two icons.
Can you please check at your end and let me know if you are getting or what to do to bring those two icons in F110.
Rgds,
Shailesh

Differentiate file uploaded from explorer view in SharePoint

Hello,
I am working on event receiver which on item adding updates few fields of document in library if those are not empty. The code is working fine in new file, drag and drop but in explorer view, I am not getting afterproperties values except two default field
values (vti_parserversion and vti_filesize). But in updating event we are getting those values.
Is there any way to differentiate file uploaded using explorer view in event receiver? So that I can work on updating in case of explorer view.
Thanks.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to differentiate file uploaded from explorer view in SharePoint 2013.
I made a test in my environment, both the two ways(“new document” or “Open with explorer” ) to upload document, the AfterProperties only contains two default field values(vti_parserversion and vti_filesize) in
ItemAdding method in event receiver.
There are two steps occur when uploading a file to document library, the file is uploaded in the first step, then the list item properties will be modified in the second step.
So, it is recommended to update the fields of document in ItemUpdating
method in event receiver.

Sending email from web forms (Forms 6i)

Does anyone know how to send email using Outlook from web forms? I can get it working with client server but not with web forms.
Thanks,

Many ways to send a email:
1. use Web.Show_Document(v_url, '_blank') to call a .asp or .php or .cgi page which can send email, attaching some message.
2. use utl_smtp built_in in Oracle 8i, you can save this procedure in database, then call this procedure in your web form.
PROCEDURE SEND_EMAIL (sender IN VARCHAR2,
recipient IN VARCHAR2,
message IN VARCHAR2)
IS
mailhost VARCHAR2(30) := 'smtp.aaaaa.com';
mail_conn utl_smtp.connection;
BEGIN
mail_conn := utl_smtp.open_connection(mailhost, 25);
utl_smtp.helo(mail_conn, mailhost);
utl_smtp.mail(mail_conn, sender);
utl_smtp.rcpt(mail_conn, recipient);
utl_smtp.data(mail_conn, message);
utl_smtp.quit(mail_conn);
-- Handle the error
