you also have to use an url
with ".pdf" at the end
The url the client is posting to is a
servlet which uses FOP to generate a PDF and feed it back to the browser.
If the client post a request to myservlet.pdf the server will look for a file
called myservlet.pdf and return a 403 when it can't find it. So how do you
use a url that ends with .pdf when using servlets?

I'm trying to see a pdf-report, created dinamically with an XML-XSL process. But if I try to see it with an IE 5.0, I see just a blank page with an icon. If I try it with an IE 5.5, I can see it with no problem.
Why is it? And there is a solution, because I cannot change the browser to 5.5?
