Hi,
   Can anyone point me in the right direction with the following problem that I am 
experiencing.
   
   I've written a very simple action that streams back to the client an attachment.  
So, here is a code snippet from the action to illustrate what I am doing.  Assume that 
the URL to hit the action is /testDownloadAction.do and I am using https instead of 
http.
   

            response.setContentType("application/octet-stream");
            response.setHeader("Pragma", "no-cache");
            response.setHeader("Expires", "-1");
    
            buf = new StringBuffer();
            
buf.append("attachment;filename=").append("TextDownloadByOctectStreamWithoutForward.txt");
            response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", buf.toString());

            writer = response.getWriter();
            writer.write("Sending down some text.  This is a text download without a 
forward");
            writer.flush();
            writer.close();
            
            actionForward = null;

When I use FireFox, I get a FileDownload dialog and I am allowed to save the file of 
name "TextDownloadByOctectStreamWithoutForward.txt".
However, when I use IE 6.0 the FileDialog pops up and says that the file name is 
"testDownloadAction.do".  If I try to hit Save, IE comes back with an error.

Does anyone have any resources to help me understand why this is not working in IE?  

Thanks.

-Ed.
