Hello Jakob I tried this half a year ago and ran into the same problems. The requirement was to be able to select multiple files at once for upload. My solution was like Chris', to use a servlet and Apache FileUpload. For InternetExplorer I had to use the Flash plugin 'swfupload' and for all other browsers the standard HTML5 feature "multiple".

Unfortunately it is not working. If I try to upload anything I get an exception. (The same code/config works with Mojarra, but with Mojarra I got other problems.) Should this combination work? I saw many issues related to file upload. Is there any special configuration needed? Can anyone suggest a different component for file uploading? I saw trinidad and tomahawk also provide this. What would be the best, easiest, trouble-freeist integrating component with Richfaces? Many thanks for your attention.
