You can try this:
resp.setContentType("text/html");
PrintWriter out = resp.getWriter();
// Create the Network URL object to which I want to connect
// you may need to tweak this to be the full URL to the file you are
attempting to read
URL location = new URL("sentfile");
// Open the URL via openStream method of URL class into an InputStream
BufferedReader in = new
feredReader(
new InputStreamReader( location.openStream() ) );
String inputLine;
// Simultaneously read in and print
while ((inputLine = in.readLine()) != null) {
out.println(inputLine);
// or you can do some other processing...
out.flush();
}
// Close the InputStream
in.close();
// Always close the output stream as well
out.close();
Good luck,
