Thanks Pedro, I remember that in a previous mail (22nd may 2002) I wrote about JSP and POI (for me this still a good combination despite of some concern expressed in this list):
'The only problem is now that IExplorer doesn't open Excel automatically (Netscape does), or can I do something for this? I tried to stream to the client an xls from a servlet that specifies the content-type without having better result.' After this an interesting and deep discussion was open on this mailing list on the subject. Now, after your example, I changed my Content-Type to yours "application/vnd.ms-excel" and my servlet worked! IExplorer recognize this Content-Type and proposes to the client to open the right application without showing me the bynary content on the screen that demands other more boring operations. Really, I didn't now the spelling of this Content-Type (many others different I had found before, all concerning Excel) and for me the problem is solved. Are some people interested in a complete JSP-POI simple working example (JSP page and Excel servlet included)? Can someone please tell me which are the necessary packages for POI (perhaps I am using more than it needs)?
