Java EE (Java Enterprise Edition) General Discussion

Hi,

I have a jsp page, where data comes in from a database. I want to convert this data into .csv format.

I have written the following lines of code in the onClick event of the button:

response.setContentType("text/csv");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","filename=\"test.csv\"");

This code is inside scriptlet tags inside the javascript function.

I find that in addition to the data, all the javascript function etc. appear in the .csv file. Also, i want the file open dialog box to open, when i click on a button. But, now this is happening on page load.

How to rectify this?

Regards,
jayashree.
