Thanks Daniel.

I never thought if servlet has a problem as it was working when the request
were made using a HTML form. I explicitly specified
ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data", and I was surprised to know that this didn't
worked when form posted though a HTML page.

I wrote to this mail group because I've seen similar issues in the
curl-library archives.

I've found the answer for my problem at

Thanks again.
