This is what we did in our Action:
// generate the file
File file = generate();
// download
response.setContentType("text/plain");
response.addHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename=" +
file.getName());
return new ActionForward("/logs/" + file.getName());
Thanks

Subject: generating a text file
Hi all. I have to generate a text file (filled with a
pre-formated text) after a certain action is finished.
this file is a kind of confirmation of a certain
business action. so, as my application is web-based, I
think I should let the user download this text file
when it is generated. how to automatically start the
download? I mean ,fire up the download confirmation
menu, so the user confirms he wants to receive the text
file or not.
thanks in advance
Otávio Augusto
