This probably doesn't matter, but try this instead:
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition",
"attachment;filename=\"" + myFileName + "\"");
// Removed the space in between "attachment;" and "filename"
response.setContentType("application/octet-stream");
// I don't think you need to specify the filename again
Using the above seems to work for me, but I'm not sure if a user with
IE5 has tried it. What happens when you use it in IE5? Error message?
Data output to the screen? Empty file?
It might be a MIME problem also.

Subject: HELP: Servlet File Download solution.
I wrote a download servlet but I found it didn't run at IE5.x
IE6.x - OK
IE5.x - NG
NS - OK
My source is below. I want to know if there are better solutions or any
Common Libarary I can use.
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition",
"attachment; filename=\"" + myFileName + "\"");
response.setContentType("application/octet-stream;
name=\"" + myFileName + "\"");
String f = myFilePath;
PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
BufferedReader in
= new BufferedReader(new FileReader(f));
String line;
while ((line = in.readLine()) != null) {
out.println(line);
}
in.close();
Thanks.
Rai
