+ <question>
+ I'm trying to stream an XLS file from a servlet and I'm having some
trouble. What's the problem?
+ </question>
+ <answer>
+ <p>
+ Dont depend on IE to show you an attachment properly if you stream it
via a
+ servlet. Every minor version of IE has different bugs.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ To guarantee it to work, instead of doing a server-side redirect
+ (requestdispather), try doing a client side redirect to your xls file.
Thats
+ guaranteed to work ... (also keep in mind that *sometimes* IE makes TWO
+ requests for a document that is opened by an external handler .. so if
your xls
+ production is heavy, you might have a problem.)
