You can only http hyperlink to resources under your webapp root. Your temp file is not under your webapp root. So you need a servlet that will read your temp file, and write it out to the response. Something like: BufferedReader bin = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(myFile)); PrintWriter out = response.getWriter(); String line = null; while((line = bin.readLine()) != null) { out.println(line); out.flush(); } Alternative approaches exist.
