Re: Problem downloadin a excel file in jsp

[Rajesh Nair]

Hi I think the problem is that iPlanet will not allow u to open one more Output stream apart from the stream it is using for Jsp Out object. For Jsp the implicit Object "out " is using the output stream aready. So i think u can use a loop for checking whether the user has clicked the download button. If yes enter a loop where u will use the Implicit Out Object of Jsp to download after setting the content-type & content-header, instead of trying to use the ServletOutputStream..   I hope that will solve ur problem.   regards Rajesh Nair   *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 4/19/02 at 2:44 PM S Srinivas Nayak wrote: Hi all   I have a typical problem in downloading a excel file in jsp . It gives me a error stating that the out put stream is already in use. I have used a servlet output stream to download a excel file online i.e. without saving in the server , but directly writing into the stream.   I have tried flushing the stream and also explictly closing the stream. Still the pblm exists .   The environment is jsp and server is iPlanet.   Can any one help regarding this.   Thanx in advance, Srinivas
