Hello out there!
I am storing varions data (from jpegs to excel) in the database and want
to download it to the browser.
If you load a file (from harddisk) like "mytab.xls" the browser notices
the type of data and opens a excel-plugin (both Netscape and IE4.0), but
if I download the data from Oracle the browsers donīt konw what to do
with it.
Two questions:
[Quoted] Is it possible to somehow "mask" the "Filename" (the browser gets the
procedures name and it would be quite stupid to create packages and
procs with names like <xls> or <doc>....)? (maybe with http-header
commands???)
[Quoted] I think the Oracle Webserver Listener has problems with MIME-Types that
are not registered in the Mime-type configuration - is there a fix for
it or do I have to reconfigure the Listener each time a new MIME-Type
comes around? (I guess it is only a simple string in the
http-header...)?
Thanks in advance,
Werner
