Hi guys, I still couldn't find the right way to create an hyperlink in my web app that makes a download of a file from the server to the client.
When you say "You have to create a GWT hyperlink and point it to the resource" What method of the GWT Hyperlink do I use to point this hyperlink to the resource (the file to be downloaded in my server - I know the exactly location path + filename.) I can't find the method that I can use to point to this file. Can abybody give me a little help one more time? thanks again 2009/9/16 Ian Bambury <ianbamb...@gmail.com> > Please don't post the same question more than once - at least, not in the > same 5 minutes. > Ian > > http://examples.roughian.com > > > 2009/9/16 sathya <sathyavik...@gmail.com> > > >> I am having same problem in GWT 1.7. >> In my application, I need to download file from server to client.
