I'm very new to servlets/jsp but have a strong
java background. This is what I want to do:
1. Take input from an html page
2. Use this input to generate a sql query to the database.
3. Depending on user input output an html table or an excel table.
I don't have any problems with 1 or 2 or generating the html table. I've also successfully constructed an excel table (via jakarta POI, which is awesome btw) but I'm not sure how to display it. As I said I'm extremely new to
servlets and I don't really know how to redirect to an excel document. I constructed the excel
doc and have saved it on the webserver. What commands should I use to redirect to this document (it's within the same webapp as the servlet).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
