There is this tag:

 Help with Code Tags 
 JSP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
<form action="">
     File: <input type="file" />
</form>
<form action="">
     File: <input type="file" />
</form>

Of course you can add more attributes. (name, size).

Here is a tutorial I like to use for html:

You might want to search in what object to get the file from the request. I don't remember it right now
