servlets - Internet Explorer 9 does not use file name for inline attachments -

i utilize code in servlet sets file name of inlined pdf document:

response.setcontenttype("application/pdf"); response.setcontentlength((int) file.length()); response.setheader("content-disposition", "inline; filename=\"" + file.getname() + "\"");

however not work in ie 9: "save as..." dialog shows lastly path part of url followed ".pdf" (for "/some/url/invoice" "invoice.pdf")

is known bug? there workaround?

that's indeed default behaviour of ie. not utilize filename attribute of content-disposition header in way prepare default filename save as. instead, uses lastly part of request url path info.

i recommend rewriting servlet and/or links in such way desired filename supplied part of request path info instead of illustration request parameter.

so, instead of

<a href="/pdfservlet">view pdf</a>

or

<a href="/pdfservlet?file=foo.pdf">view pdf</a>

you need use

<a href="/pdfservlet/foo.pdf">view pdf</a>

when mapped on url pattern of /pdfservlet/*, can if necessary grab filename part dynamically in servlet follows (for example, locate desired pdf file and/or set right filename in header more decent webbrowsers):

string filename = request.getpathinfo().substring(1); // foo.pdf

this way regardless of whether it's served inline or attachment.

How do I check if an insert was successful with MySQLdb in Python? - i have code: cursor = conn.cursor() cursor.execute(("insert new_files (videos_id, filename, " "is_processing) values (%s,%s,1)"), (id, filename)) logging.warn("%d", cursor.rowcount) if (cursor.rowcount == 1): logging.info("inserted values %d, %s", id, filename) else: logging.warn("failed insert values %d, %s", id, filename) cursor.close() fun is, cursor.rowcount always one, though updated database create videos_id unique key. is, insert fails because in tests same videos_id going appear (and when check database, nil inserted). whatever reason, rowcount 1 - logging.warn have spits out rowcount of 1. so, question: can utilize rowcount work out if insert went fine? if so, (presumably) doing wrong? otherwise, how check if insert went fine? your code not commit after modifications (your modifications rolled back). should...
