Well guys, I guess this question is pretty known by you.
After making a better search at the list archives I found a solution.

the solution is to put the file name after the addressing of the servlet and
before the parameters.
Something like this:

<path to servlet>/<name desired>?<parameters>

If any of you know a better way (one that is a standard) please talk about!

Subject: Download Servlet (Content-Disposition header entry)



Hi friends,

I�m developing a simple servlet to let http user make download of files in
my server.
The problem is that IE is not acting as expected.

I�m using the Content-Disposition header entry to specify what name should
be shown to the user if he/she choses to "save as" the file.
But IE5 is showing the "save as" dialog twice. First with the complete URL
name, and then with the right file name.

I hope there is a bug in my code, so its going to you as an attachment.

I�ve tested this servlet with jwsdk-1.0.1 and resim1.1

Thanks for your help ..

<PS: The code is a bit uggly, but take it easy, its just for tests>
