Content type is sent from browser as http header entry, servlet container should not change it by contract. so it's not the issue of whether container knows how to handle a certain content type or not. my sample code clearly shows that container does pass down the content type.<br />

Yes, this will help to get the form data and uploaded file. another good one is jspsmartupload from <a href="http://www.jspsmart.com" rel="ugc">www.jspsmart.com</a>

getContentType is returning null

JavaServer Pages (JSP) allow the development of dynamically generated web pages. It uses the Java programming language; JSP pages are translated into servlets at runtime, with each servlet being cached and reused until the JSP is modified. JSP allows Java code to be interleaved with static web markup content, so the resulting page can be compiled and executed on the server to deliver the content.
