I have a book named Java Servlet Programming which mentions a class called
MultipartResponse that looks like it might do what I want, but, it says that
IE doesn't support it. Also, it seems to be using a class provided by
oreilly. It would be nice to be able to handle the problem in a synchronous
fashion.
