path of file is cannot identified while img uploading servlet

I m using a jsp file for image upload and forwording the paths to a servlet class.
But in servlet class the file name is retrieving(like aa.jpg), but the complete path of file is not showing.

<FORM action="ImageUpload"
enctype="multipart/form-data" >
<INPUT type="hidden" name="ID" value="1">
<TABLE BORDER=1>
<TR>
<TD ALIGN="center">
<input type="text" name="companyId" id="ppp">
<input type="hidden" id="aaa" >
 
Filename: <INPUT type="file" name="submitfile1" size="40">
Filename:<INPUT type="file" name="submitfile2" size="40">
Filename:<INPUT type="file" name="submitfile3" size="40">
</TD>
</TR>
<TR>
<TD ALIGN="center">
<center>
<input type="submit" onClick="aaa();">
<INPUT type="reset">
</center>
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
</FORM>
 
 
 
 
ImageUpload.java
 
request.getParameter("submitfile1");  //prints only file name(aa.jpg) not complete path(like D:\BackUp\MyPrograms\images\aa.jpg)
 
plz help, this is an urgent issue.

You seem to be forgetting that the servlet will be executing on the server, and the file will be on the client where it cannot be accessed. You need to look at Commons FileUpload to help you upload the file.... http://commons.apache.org/fileupload/
