External URL:s

[Michael Kolmodin <Mi...@kolmodin.net>]

Porting an existing application to Tapestry (which is a nice piece of 
software :-) ) I have run into trouble with some lists. Basically, each 
list is a HTML page with links to download the same content as PDF, 
LDIF, Excel/XLS etc.

I've services for all of those up&running. However, from a client point 
of view I need to have reasonable URL:s to these links. As is, my
application earlier used /listings/people.ldif, /listings/people.pdf 
etc. This is not only to propose a natural filename for the downloaded 
file, but also to compensate for IE's refusal to look at the MIME 
content types - it just looks at the filename extension.

But this isn't easy - that is, not for me... Has anyone out there a 
piece of advice how to "map" fixed URL:s as above to services in 
Tapestry? Part of the problem: How can I invoke a service from java code?

Thanks in advance,

-- michael
