If I have another file like test.txt in the same place html.jsp http://localhost:8888/content/mynode.html/test.txt will download the file according purpose 2. else in the purpose 1 to have a link to test.txt like a href in html.jsp. In a script can I use suffixes instead of giving a browser path. > the "flush" attribute just specifies, that the output buffer is > flushed before executing the include. usually you can leave this to > 'false'. this has the advantage, that the output buffer is only > comitted when it's either full, or the end of the response is reached. > this allows the included script still to change response headers and > allows for a better error handling. but it depends on the size of the > output buffer, and you should not rely on an uncomitted buffer. as > soon as you write directly on the response.getWriter() you need to > flush the buffer before hand. otherwise you don't get the correct > sequence of output. Is there a way I can know whether the buffer is flushed. can I get the buffer in a script and check this. regards, Janandith.
