    1. COBefore your JSP directives, you have a complete HTTP header. When your JSP code executes `response.reset(),` this header may well have already been sent. Furthermore you send a closing `</html>` tag after sending the PDF which also makes the result an invalid PDF.

    2. COMy comment is of a more general nature: JSP technology was introduced to eliminate the necessity of polluting Java code with HTML. You wrote a servlet in JSP, and somehow managed to pollute it with HTML.

    3. COIt's interesting that you tagged this question with `[servlets]`, even though you are nowhere using a servlet in your code at all, but it **is** the right answer to your concrete problem! Basically, you already knew the answer beforehand, you just didn't see it.

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.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
