hello,
i got the following problem.
on my jsp there is a button which should open a winword document, not in the browser, instead using the winword.exe.
therefore the doc file must be copied to the client system. and winword must be executed to open the file.
i got some code, to execute winword and open a file.
but how:
- can i copy the file to the client system
- execute the code on the client to start winword
Usually this is done by setting the content type to "application/msword"
<%@ page import="java.util.*" %>
<%@ page import="java.io.*" %>
<%@ page session="false" buffer="1kb" contentType="application/msword" ; charset=ISO-8859-1" %>
<%! int offSet = 100; %>
<%
String back = request.getParameter("back");
String filename = request.getParameter("filename");
Filefile = null;
if (filename != null) {
file = new File(filename);
}
if ((file == null) || (! file.exists()) || (! file.canRead())) {
response.setContentType("text/html ; charset=ISO-8859-1");
out.println("<HTML>");
out.println("<head>");
out.println("<title>Tail Log File: ");
out.println(request.getParameter("filename"));
out.println("</title>");
out.println("</head>");
out.println("<BODY>");
if (back != null) {
out.print("<a href=\"");
out.print(request.getParameter("back"));
out.print("\">back</a> "
}
out.println("Unable to access log file ");
out.println(filename);
out.println("</BODY></HTML>");
return;
}
BufferedReader br = null;
BufferedWriter bw = null;
try {
br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(file));
String line = "";
bw = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(response.getOutputStream()));
while ((line = br.readLine()) != null) {
bw.write(line);
bw.newLine();
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
if (br != null) {
try {
br.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
// nop
}
}
if (bw != null) {
try {
bw.close();
} catch (Exception e) {
// nop
}
}
}//End finally
