I'm currently trying to send data files thru a servlet back to an end user. 
 I'm setting the content type to "application/octet-stream" but the browser is 
still trying to interpret the data.  In other words if I'm sending back a file 
that contains HTML the browser will display it instead of popping up a save 
file dialog.  If I associate a file name with the file and the meta type is 
"application/octet-stream" the save file dialog box will pop-up.

Is there an HTTP header that sets the file name?  Is there a formal way of 
sending data thru a servlet that will treat the data by the content-type?

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks
