RE: Downloading a file from an Action class.

ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream(); PrintStream ps = new PrintStream(baos); ps.print(new String(returnStr)); ServletOutputStream sos = response.getOutputStream(); baos.writeTo(sos); sos.flush(); sos.close(); Then return null ActionForward in your action method. Thanks, Yuan

RE: Downloading a file from an Action class.

The problem I think is that you are never writing your output to the Response object. I'm guessing you think that setting the filename in the header as you are doing will be sufficient, but it's not. Try something along these lines: ServletOutputStream out = response.getOutputStream(); ba.wri

Re: Downloading a file from an Action class.
