Portlet File upload problem
Hi,
I have a JSF popup where i need to browse files and get the contents of the file in my backing bean and I will be saving it to the database as a Clob. I am working in aportlet environment.
The problem is that I tried using tomahawk <x:inputFileUpload>
tag which used theprivate UploadedFile myFile
; to get the contents into the backing bean. I get the browse button and the text box. But when I browse the files and try to process the file nothing happens...
Is'nt file upload possible in portlets? Is there any way I can make this work? I needed to upload local html files. Can anyone please help me solve this.
Thanks a
Dear All
I have problem to get the <x:inputFileUpload> to select files - I cannot see the browse button and the text box :
<%@ taglib uri="http://myfaces.apache.org/tomahawk" prefix="t" %>
...
...
<x:inputFileUpload id="myFileId"
value="#{myBean.uploadFile}"
storage="file"
required="true"/>
can someone tell me how to get the browse button and text box up please?
Thanks in advance

hi soorejkumar,
i asume, that you are using
org.apache.myfaces.portlet.MyFacesGenericPortlet
or in case of jetspeed2
org.apache.portals.bridges.jsf.FacesPortlet
it is not possible to bring <x:inputFileUpload> to work with one of those bridges.
4 more information on that read the api.
in jetspeed2 you can slove this problem by using the 'IFrame Prototype Portlet'.
--> deploy your jsf-webapp normally to your servlet container
--> add the 'IFrame Prototype Portlet' to your page
--> change preferences 'SRC' to 'http://myspace.com:8080/mywebapp/faces/myupload.jsp'
