Simple FileChooser application for tomcat server?

I have installed a Tomcat 5.5 server on a remote linux machine.

I would like to create a simple webpage/application where a user can p开发者_JAVA技巧ress a button and then a FileChooser box pops up which allows him to specify a file on his local machine that he can then upload to the webapps folder.

When the file is uploaded a simple script should be executed doing some predefined operations on the file.

Are there any tutorials for creating such a small tomcat uploader webpage?

This is not as trivial as it seems. However, you may want to have a look at manager application that comes with tomcat. It provides an ability to deploy, undeploy and re-deploy web applications dynamically.
