I have used a straight servlet to download a blob from a database using a URL like this:
http://someserver/documents/123/file.pdf I did it this way instead of using struts because IE is a pile of crap. :-) In this URL, the /123/ is the record's id, and file.pdf is the suggested extension for the browser, which just thinks that is it a static file. If you're interested, I can send you the source for the servlet - it's only a few lines of code.
