I have an application that uses tomcat 5.0.19. At one point in my application, the user has the possibility to click on a certain link in order to download a file. Once the file is downloaded, I would like the application to go to a certain jsp page.... is there a way to configure tomcat to do such a thing? I mean, to redirect to a page only if the download has been successfully ended?
Maybe this can work: Write a a servlet (or JSP) that delivers the file to your user, e.g. response.setContentType("application/octet-stream"); //or whatever java.io.InputStream data = new java.io.FileInputStream("file.bin"); byte[] buf = new byte[4 * 1024]; int len; while ((len = data.read(buf, 0, buf.length)) != -1) { sout.write(buf, 0, len); } After that you can forward to the desired page: RequestDispatcher dispatcher = getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("fwd.jsp"); dispatcher.forward(request, response); Guido --------------------------------------------------------------------- To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
