> Creating a download link with a4j:mediaOutput yields an <a where the URL in
> the href is several hundred characters long and ends with .jsf regardless of
> the content type. If the end user tries to download the file then, depending
> on the browser settings, the following happens:
> -- if the browser is configured to store all downloads in a given folder and
> the user left-clicks on the link, then nothing happens. The only chance is to
> right- click on the link and select "save as".
> -- if the "save as" dialogue opens because the user selected it by right-
> clicking or because the browser is configured to ask each time for the folder
> to save the file, then the suggested file name is several hundred characters
> long and always ends with .jsf. Accepting the suggested file name usually
> results in an OS error "illegal filename". The user has to rename the file
> and give it the right extension (which he/she has to know) in order to be
> able to download the document and open it.
