Downloading during JSP

Question

Hi all,
I have encountered a problem... I have used response.setContentType to download type and also the response header... The download window did pop out and is able to download and it will update my database...
else if (formType.equals("downloadArticle")) {
File file = new File("c:/tmp/test.txt");
response.setContentType("application/x-download");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + file.getName());
OutputStream os = response.getOutputStream();
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(file);
byte[] buf = new byte[1024];
while (fis.read(buf) != -1)
os.write(buf);
os.flush();
os.close();
fis.close();
// method to remove the file from database
but is it possible that when the download window pop out and I click "cancel".. it will not update my database..

Answer 1

hmm.... thx for ur help... =)
but... are there anywhere that I can do to make it instead of the method above, such that only the client have already downloaded the file then i can delete it from the db?
