1/ set content-type to "application/x-excel" 2/ make your link end with .xls EG: http://mysite.com/context/servlet/org.apache.test/x.xls?param=value This works, M$IE recognises "x.xls" as an excel file, and tomcat will call org.apache.test.doGet(), and pass in the parameters correctly, to generate it. M$IE opens Excel in a COM in-browser process. You can also use the URL in the File->open dialogue of Excel to open the generated xls file directly without using IE. d. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
