JSP is indeed a Server side technology. Here are few of the links to do a file upload using JSP.

JSP is code that produces the client facing HTML code (commonly called the View) and the Servlet is server code. In reality they will be on different machines, so what is the use of the full path. The file contents should be POSTED to the servlet when submitting your form.

your jsp should something like:

<form action="UploadServlet" method="post"
                        enctype="multipart/form-data">
<input type="file" name="file" size="50" />
<br />
<input type="submit" value="Upload File" />
</form>

Of course you have other input fields as well.

Maybe show some code and I can be more specific. JSP should be used to show the View to your user on the browser. When data is POSTED (submitted / file uploaded) it should be sent to a servlet running in a Java Application Server like Tomcat. The users browser (maybe 100's of users) will be running on a different machine to the servlet.

JSP is not client side code, JavaScript, HTML, CSS are.

I have edited my answer to (whilst trying to keep it easy) explain the differentiation of the use of JSP vs Servlet code

@AlexandreLavoie I do not think I ever said that JSP was client code. I said that it produces HTML code.
