Hi,
I am thinking of designing a bio related website. Which can process Genebank or Fasta or any other bio codes. Now to begin with I have some critical design issues.

#1 It should be a website, it should allow the user to upload a file (it should check for extension), the file then gets parsed and output is shown.

How do you think I should go about designing such a website? I am confused this

should I let the user upload the file to the server after initial file extension checking and then parse the file using server side codes.
OR
should I check for file extension and parse it right there.

I am thinking of using JAVA at both end. So any kind of help is appreciated. Please also let me know if there is any better language do this or if this is really possible using JAVA scripts or any thing that you wish to tell me.

Thank you and I look forward to hear from you soon.
