Hi all,

I'm trying to use a DownloadAction to serve a file to users. The Action is called when a jsp forwards to it with a meta-refresh, eg:
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="2;url=Download.do">

In order to get this far the user has to be logged in and their credentials are in the session, as is the name of the file to download. The whole process works fine in Firefox.

With IE, however, after the jsp meta-refresh time elapses (2 secs) IE blocks the download with its popup blocker (the bar lowers down from the address bar). If the user clicks on the lowered warning bar and chooses Download File, the DownloadAction triggers but now it appears the session is empty, and so I no longer have access to the User object nor the name of the file to download.

Has anyone else had this problem? Am I diagnosing it correctly (ie session is gone)? Any ideas to get around it?

Thanks very much,
Oliver
