...ragazzi qui sotto ho modificato un' esempio...
...il mio problema è che comando questa classe con una JSP...
...ma quando la eseguo il pop-up appare solo sul web server e non sul client di turno...
...l' ideale per me sarebbe...
...l' utente apre la pagina jsp...appare il pop-up che permette di selezionare un file presente sulla propia macchina...
...una volta selezionato fare una serie di operazioni...etc etc...
...come si può fare????...
