[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Reece Whittaker Sent: Monday, October 07, 2002 3:46 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: download file name lost I've set up a simple file serving servlet using a ServletOutputStream & URLConnection. The files download fine, but I lose the original file name, instead I get the servlets mapped name and an object reference (eg MyServlet67f6b) Do I have to set a header ?
