Ooh ... I was just reminded that the values between the commas should be
quoted in case there are internal commas ...
out.write("\"Every\",\"good\",\"boy\",\"does\",\"fine\"\r\n");
out.write("\"face\",\"in\",\"the\",\"space\",\"dude\"\r\n");

Try something like this little servlet:
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
public class CsvServlet extends HttpServlet {
protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse

doPost(request, response);

PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
out.write("Every,good,boy,does,fine\r\n");

out.flush();

Hi All,
I am looking for some best practices advice on
handling this task:
I have a web application (written in Struts) that
talks to some database. A browser user will be able
user to export tabular data from the db in a comma
delimited file and get a save as dialog box prompting
to name the resulting file.
I have not done this before so i am looking for
suggestions on how to accomplish it (in terms of java
object interaction and whatever else).
Thanks a lot,
James
