FOP, JSP, TOMCAT, IE .. How to make it works!!! Please help!!

[David Gagnon]

Hi All,     I’m on known problem for a while.  I searched all around the web but haven’t found an answer that matches my requirement. It’s not directly a problem with FOP but rather a problem on own to make FOP works on tomcat.   Il read all the stuff that explain how to make FOP works with IE in a servlet an it’s works.  But that’s not enough for the need of my application. So I want to know:   -Is there a way I can have the PDF displayed on the browser as it’s generated on the server.  Let say I start to generate a 10000 pages document; I want the document to appear in the browser window as soon as possible.  This way the user can start reading the document while the server finishes it.   More, if the user closes the window while the server generates the document.  Is there a way to stop the processing on the server?   I want to have the smallest delay possible between the time the user click the button on is browser an the time he gets the 1st page displayed in the browser.   I want a way, if possible, to stop the processing of a report that have been launched from a Window that have been closed.     I read stuff about using chunked transfer-coding.  Is that works?  Any idea if I can found an example somewhere.   I need to support IE6 and Firefox.   Any help will be appreciated since I browsed all the web and I haven’t found something relevant.   Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it!!   /David
