Weblogic call a excel-file from URL doesn't open MSExcel but flat html

Hi,

I get differences between FORMS 10 g / AS and FORMS 11 / WLS
when call an excel-file with web.showdocument

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
in 10g AS10g
the call
web.showdocumen('http://MyAS10_Server/myFormsMapping/myExcelfile.xls, _blank);

opens a Windows-Box
to decide
open with ( MSExcel )
or
download and save as File

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
in WLS 10.3.5 / FORMS 11.1.1.4
the call with webcache Port 8090 as well as Port OHS 8888

web.showdocumen('http://MyWLS_Server:8090/myFormsMapping/myExcelfile.xls, _blank);

opens promptly the excel-File into the Browser as html-Format

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How to get the same way under WLS as before in AS 10g,
what to change the ( mimetype ? ) when open excel ?

regard
