This week's book giveaway is in the General Computing forum. We're giving away four copies of Arduino in Action and have Martin Evans, Joshua Noble, and Jordan Hochenbaum on-line! See this thread for details.
How do you automatically download/open a JNLP file on an IE5 browser and some versions of IE6. The browser prompts me to Open Save or Cancel, and then after that prompts me to choose which program to run the JNLP file.
I already have javaws with j2se 1.5, and there is already an entry for the JNLP file opened by javaws in the Folder Option->File Types in Windows Control panel..
it definitly has to do with the MIME type, but is this only IE that is showing you the text of the jnlp?

I noticed when I hosted the jnlp file on an embedded OC4J, the browser automatically runs the jnlp file, But in Tomcat, it still prompts me to save/open.
I looked up the web.xml file of Tomcat. the mime type entry for JNLP is there. What could be wrong with Tomcat?
I agree. Here's the link: http://ej-technologies/jprofiler - if it wasn't for jprofiler, we would need to
run our stuff on 16 servers instead of 3.
