I looked at setting the max-age. But our reports can take two seconds or 2
minutes, so I really couldn't figure out a good setting.

Hi Savino,
Thanks so much, it works for me.
It definitely saves the extra time spent in reload of servlet.
However I used the cache-control directive for IE :-
--
response.setHeader(Cache-Control, max-age=10); //
workaround so IE
does not refresh/reload PDF page again/twice
--
regds,
Dharmendra

This is a known issue. There seem to be several approaches,
which may depend
on your particular situation. There's a full discusssion of
this on the
fop-dev list under the subject 'FO - PDF works with
Netscape, not with IE'
which has the code for my solution (you can find it in the
archives if not
subscribed). I believe this is also going to be in the FAQ soon.
Please let me know if you have more questions.

Subject: IE reloads the PDF document generated from servlet multiple
times (2 times!)
Hi FOP Users,
Has anyone come across the problem of Servlet getting
called multiple
times by IE (ver 5.5)
I use the following to render PDF using an input source,
however I see in
log that that IE calls my servlet 2 times!
I use the following code as in the example for embedding
fop in servlet -
--
response.setContentType(application/pdf);
Driver driver = new Driver(inputSource,
response.getOutputStream());
driver.setRenderer(Driver.RENDER_PDF);
driver.run();
--
Aparently I noticed that after the first time my servlet is done
processing the XSLT, IE 5.5 launches the PDF pluggin!,
The PDF pluggin again repeats the whole XSLT transform,
and only then it
display the PDF output.
Anybody has similar experience with IE 5.5 ? any
ideas/suggestions are
appreciated.
Thanks!,
Dharmendra
