    <p>Current situation: in the Java code, I'm fetching documents with attachments from a CouchDB via the Ektorp library. Those documents are mapped into Java objects, all working fine. In order to make those attachments accessible in the browser, I'm instantiating a ByteArrayResource with the document attachment as a byte array, the content-type, and the filename:</p> <pre><code>private ByteArrayResource handleAttachment(String key, String cType) { ByteArrayResource res = null; AttachmentInputStream attIS = CouchDB.INSTANCE.getCouchDbConnector().getAttachment(doc.getId(), key); InputStream is = new BufferedInputStream(attIS); try { // Convert InputStream to byte[] with Apache commons-io byte[] bytes = IOUtils.toByteArray(is); attIS.close(); is.close(); res = new ByteArrayResource(cType, bytes, key); } catch (IOException e) { logger.error("", e); } return res; } </code></pre> <p>I'm then simply adding a ResourceLink to my page:</p> <pre><code>ByteArrayResource resource = handleAttachment(key, cType); add(new ResourceLink("resLink", resource)); </code></pre> <p>The problem is: when I'm clicking that link in a browser, all attachments are downloading, no matter what the content-type is. When I access those attachment from the CouchDB directly via the browser, an "image/xxx" content-type opens the image in the browser, "text/xxx" get's displayed in the browser, "and "application/pdf" is also handled by the browser (Safari e.g. displays the PDF immediately).</p> <p>How can I achieve that with Wicket? Any help is appreciated. Please keep in mind that I do not want shared resources, my site is secured. Thank you!</p> <p>PS: What's kind of interesting, if I open one of those "image" content-type ResourceLinks with the "rel="prettyPhoto" attribute, I get the JQuery PrettyPhoto plugin to correctly display that picture in a layover. The browser however triggers a download.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
