Generate Microsoft Word Document using JSP

[Haricherrytec krishnan]

i am creating a web-application using JSP,i have one scenario in which user enter some details in the form and when they press submit, a Microsoft word document has to be generated with the details, what user had entered in that form.

So,how to generate a Microsoft Word Document using JSP

There are 3rd party tools that I believe do this. Also, you could just generate RTF.

Doing this from a JSP is fraught with pitfalls, so I would highly suggest that, once you figure out how to generate the document, that you use a servlet, rather than a JSP, to send it to the client.

In any case, I've moved this to the Other Open Source Projects forum for further discussion.

You could use POI for generating DOC files, or iText for generating RTF files. Links are here.
