Hi,
As per my knowledge, what you have to do is opening an out stream from your
action.
Something like...
response.setContentType("application/x-file-download");
response.setHeader(
"Content-disposition",
"attachment; filename=" + "Appfile.xml);
response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "max-age=" +
20000);
ServletOutputStream outStream = null;
try {
outStream = response.getOutputStream();
} catch (IOException e1) {
e1.printStackTrace();
}
//call to your backend to get the real out stream for this file..
try {
getFileData(outStream); //write the
outstraem here..
} catch (FileNotFoundException e2) {
e2.printStackTrace();
}
//and finally
try {
outStream.flush();
} catch (IOException e3) {
e3.printStackTrace();
}
return null; //return Null...so that user will see
a Download popup...
Thanks & regards,
Mano

Subject: Re: OT: file download without opening a window
What I need is for system users to be able to download a specifik xml file
on my server.
The download should start when the user clicks on a button. The click on the
button should copy the action of right-clicking on a link to the xml file
and choosing "Save target as". I dont want a new window to open or a
redirect off the page.
Please let me know if I need to explain againg
Br.
Soren
