File Download

[david_fryda2]

Hi everyone,

I tried to create a File Download UI element.

Here is the code I wrote :

final IWDCachedWebResource resource = WDWebResource.getWebResource(content, WDWebResourceType.PDF);

IWDWindow window = wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createNonModalExternalWindow( resource.getUrl(WDFileDownloadBehaviour.ALLOW_SAVE.ordinal()),

resource.getResourceName());

window.open();

The problem is that it open 2 windows : the first is the window which asks to SAVE or to OPEN (which is OK), the second window is just an empty window (blank page).

How can I not display the second window ?

Thanks in advance.

Regards.

Hi

This code is working file for me

wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("==Before =="+FilePath);

IWDResource res = WDResourceFactory.createResource(

new FileInputStream(FilePath"
"wdContext.currentContextElement().getDirectory()

+wdContext.currentContextElement().getFileName()), wdContext.currentContextElement().getFileName(),

WDWebResourceType.DOC, true);

wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager().reportSuccess("=="+FilePath);

IWDWindow window = wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createNonModalExternalWindow(

res.getUrl(WDFileDownloadBehaviour.ALLOW_SAVE.ordinal()),

res.getResourceName());

window.show();

} catch (FileNotFoundException e) {

// ..

}

PS: May try to change window.open() to show()

Hople it will solve your problem

Thanks

Hi,

I tried the code but it still display an empty page just behind the little download modal window .

Maybe it is like this because of IE 7 ?

Thanks anyway!

Hi David,

That blank window is a default window which opens up if you put FileDownloadBehaviour as ALLOW_SAVE. It has nothing to do with IE version. Try choosing AUTO or OPEN_INPLACE.

Hope it helps you.

Hi,

If I write FileDownloadBehaviour as AUTO or OPEN_INPLACE, it doesn't give me the choice to save the file. It displays it directly.

I still have the problem.

Thanks.

Hi David,

As I can understand from your code you want a modal window to open up and then from that modal window the file should be downloaded....Is that corrcet?

If yes then for that write the code for getting the file resource and file download behaviour in the modal window.

Also the file download UI element should be on second window.

This should help you.

You can go through the follwoing PDF for uploading and downloading file:
