When using a plain servlet or jsp and outputting PDF (and setting the

file extension to see which content type he should use (and not the http
headers).
I was just wondering how this is done with Cocoon if your URL is for
example "report" (so definitely without an extension) and in the sitemap
you are using a reader to get the pdf from the filesystem and setting
the content type to pdf.
If you don't use anything which can be mistaken as an extension, IEx
uses the content-type to decide what to do with the content. If you've
got a dot in the last component of the URL, it depends whether the
string after the last dot is a a registered file extension in the
Windows registry.
There's still the problem that the content may be retrieved twice
or even three times.
has Cocoon some workaround for this or does it have the same problem?
Cocoon's mapping mechanism makes it is easy to use URLs ending
in .pdf for PDF content.
