Description

I think I've found the culprit. I've followed some of the threads about Tiles and the export function not playing nicely with each other, with the ResponseOverrideFilter being the solution to that problem.

ResponseOverrideFilter works fine with Mozilla, but I think it's not working that well with IE. When I took Tiles out of the equation (see environment below), export now works in IE.

Subject: [displaytag-user] Problem Exporting in IE

Hi all -

I'm experiencing a problem with the export feature in Internet Explorer (6.0.2900.2180.xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158). I've specified these in my displaytag.properties file:

export.csv.filename=report.csv
export.excel.filename=report.xls

In Mozilla, everything works as expected. I click on the XLS link and a dialog box comes up with the correct name "report.xls", giving me the option to Open it w/ default app, Open it, or Save it to Disk. However with IE, instead of "report.xls" being the file name in the dialog box, it shows the entire URL with all the displaytag parameters, and when I choose to either save or open the file, IE complains that the file ".... <entire URL>..." cannot be downloaded.

Here's what I'm using:

Tomcat 4.1.30
Struts 1.1 / Tiles
Displaytag 1.0 RC1
I'm using the ResponseOverrideFilter as described in the docs

Can someone confirm this?

This isn't something that I have seen reported elsewhere. This issue should be closed on May 1 2005 if no confirmation is received.

I actually have the same problem.
The only diffrence I am using WebWork/Tiles.
An one more thing:
if it is "http:" it works ok, but
if it is "https:" - I am having the same issue.
Under Netscape7.2 everything works perfect.

As you can see export doesn't work properly (there is no proper file
name - and if you try to open or save this file - browser gives you a
message "can not open this file" - I guess because of not proper name ).

I've just submitted a few jpg files with screenshoots and jsp code to prove my prevoius comment.
Just reminder:

I am using Webwork/Tiles and Dispaly tag library.
And export works perfect in case of :

http/ie and http/https/netscape
but doesn't in case of https/ie

It looks like it is like a mixxed problem between using tiles+https.
In case if there is no tiles and https - it works.
