Pid - Would adding the following mime-mapping to the web.xml file help? <mime-mapping> <extension>.csv</extension> <mime-type>text/csv</mime-type> </mime-mapping> There is no mapping for ".csv" in the Tomcat default web.xml file in the conf directory. I seem to remember addressing a similar problem many, many moons ago for our app by adding those lines. Jeff

Are you setting the "Content-type" header to "text/csv", or are you just generating it with a JSP? The latter will automatically set text/html as the content type. p --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org ******************************* NOTICE ********************************* This message is intended for the use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed and may contain information that is privileged, confidential, and exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
