Hi Tommy, Thanks for your reply. I thought I would get the answer very quickly if I post the answer on this form after struggling for a week.This is very general question thats why I did not mention all the requirement. I am working for an insurance company. And we have existing framework of Sturts+Spring+Hibernate. And the requirement which I am working on is that the person who wants to buy the car insurance he has the option to upload the four pictures of his car.Along with some other details.After selecting the picture he would like to see which picture he uploaded. He cannot delete the uploaded picture but at least he should be able to see those four pictures on the jsp page. He can upload png,jpg or gif files.At the bottom there is a continue button after continue I have to save those pics into the database.
Let me know if you have any questions.Thanks for your efforts and help in advance.
