I tried adding a button when the callback success and on click event
of that button, call to window.open(path,"_blank",""). this didn't
work, I think that the thing is that the browser doesn't know how to
open that path. The thing I don't understand is why if I open a new
tab on firefox or I Explorer or Chrome wirks without a problem.

Maybe another solution is not to call a rpc to download the file and
instead of that make something like an old servlet that make a call to
download browser. I've trying this thing works since a lot of time and
I still didn't find a solution.

I hope someone could help me with this,

Thanks,
Federico
