On servletresponse redirect, the "Save As" dialog pops suggesting the file name as "test" (which is the servlet name), infact the actual file name is abc.txt Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Create a simple servlet with a basic Usecase. 2.The Anchor HREF, is a usecase request whose response would redirect to a file on the webserver. 3. click on anchor link Actual Results: the "Save As" dialog suggests the servlet name as the file name Expected Results: the acutal file name should be suggested in the "Save As" dialog. If you need the test Servlet, I can send it to you.
> If you need the test Servlet, I can send it to you. can you attach the sourcecode of that servlet here?
Attached file TestServlet source. (deleted) —
you can deploy this servlet in your local webabb and try this link http://localhost/test/TestServlet?fileName=one.xml&filePath=d:/temp/ PS: you can change the fileName and filePath parameter values. When u hit this URL, "save to disk" window pops up, on selecting save to disk, You will see the file name suggested is the Servlet name instead of actual file name.
