I'd actually like to point out this incorrect line in the FAQ: " Internet Explorer provides the entire path to the uploaded file and not just the base file name. Since FileUpload provides exactly what was supplied by the client (browser), you may want to remove this path information in your application. You can do that using the following method from Commons IO (which you already have, since it is used by FileUpload)." As far as I can tell, you don't have access to this method if you're only using the org.apache.commons.fileupload library. You need to include the org.apache.commons.io library with your project.
Commons FileUpload 1.1 and later require Commons IO. If you're still using FileUpload 1.0, you should upgrade, so that you get the bug fixes (and enhancements). -- Martin Cooper Jacob Fenwick wrote:
