I have been away from the list for awhile and don't know if this has been
already discussed. I have looked in the archives but did not find any
answer.
A year ago I developed a servlet that forced a file download. The contents
of the file comes from a database.
Before I started to output the contents I did the following:
ares.setContentType("application/octet-stream");
ares.setHeader("Content-Disposition","inline; filename="test.bin")
ares.setContentLength(lTotalLength)
ServletOutputStream aout = ares.getOutputStream();
< send contents to aout>
where ares is the HttpServletResponse and lTotalLenght is the content
length. This currently works with NS 4.51 but IE 4.0 gets real mad. The
file download dialog comes up and then I get an error stating that it is not
able to download www.your.domain.com/servlet/DownloadServet?Name=XYZ. form
yyy.domain.com.
Does anybody have a solution to the problem ?
Thanks in advance,
Arend van der Veen
