Hi Scott.
not that I know of. I ended up grabbing the ServletOutputStream from the
response and streaming my file to the client that way. On the JSP, I
create a link that points to action mapping I've designated to do the
download. Remember to set the content type of the file. For the header, do
the following:
response.setHeader(
"Content-Disposition",
"attachment; filename=\"" +
fileName +
"\"" );
now, a question for all those who've done this before me. When I do this,
IE will pop up two dialog boxes in a row asking if I wish to save or open
an application to deal with the download. Netscape will just open up a
file save dialog box. Is there anyway to keep IE from doing the two dialog
boxes???:
