Hi all ! Could anybody tell me about the "multipart/x-mixed-replace" content type ? I try to use thie content type for my HTTPServletResponse object in my Java servlet, to keep outputting messages to the browser, but however, the browser does not interpret the headers properly and all the tags are visible as part of the browser content (I use Internet Explorer 5.0). The following is the Java code : public class RefreshingServlet extends HttpServlet{ public void init(ServletConfig config) throws ServletException{ super.init(config); } public void service(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res) throws ServletException, IOException { res.setContentType("multipart/x-mixed-replace;boundary=\"boundary\""); PrintWriter out=res.getWriter(); // Here is the first part out.print("\n\r--boundary\n\r"); out.print("Content-Type: text/html\n\r"); out.println("<H1>Waiting...</H1>"); out.flush(); // Here is the long work (here, a sleep) try { Thread.sleep(3000); } catch (Exception e) { // ignore } // Here is the second part out.print("\n\r--boundary\n\r"); out.print("Content-Type: text/html\n\r"); out.println("<H1>Done</H1>"); out.print("\n\r--boundary--\n\r"); out.flush(); } } Any loopholes for this ?
