Probably the most common practice would be to have your "success" result
contain a meta-refresh that redirects to the action which will spit out
your file (by stream result). If the file download requires some
precondition to be met, then you'll probably have to set a flag in the
user's session, since the meta-refresh will generate a whole new
request. The advantage of this scenario is that your user will not end
up looking at a blank page, or his/her previously filled out form (and
potentially submitting more than once).
