    <p>i am using JSF 2.0 (Eclipse IDE) and i have a method in one of my beans which generates some PDF files using Apache FOP 1.0. When I click "makePDF" button on my JSF page, generated PDF opens in the SAME window where my page is (and i have to use 'back' button after i view/save/print PDF). </p> <p>I can change this in a way that when "makePDF" button is pressed, standard pop-out dialog appears and asks me if i wish to save file or to open it with AdobeReader. </p> <p>Is there a way that, when i click my "makePDF" button, generated PDF is directly opened in AdobeReader (and i still have my JSF page and dont need to confirm anything) ??? Also (it's not really needed, but good to know), is there a way to open it in new window or send it directly to printer?</p> <p>Here is the main part of my code (i deleted some irrelevant stuff) :</p> <pre><code>public void makePDF(long contractId, int documentType) { FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(); ExternalContext externalContext = facesContext.getExternalContext(); String basePath = externalContext.getRealPath("/"); try { fopFactory.setUserConfig(new File(basePath + "/pdf_transform/config/userconfig.xml")); fopFactory.setBaseURL(basePath); fopFactory.getFontManager().setFontBaseURL(basePath); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } FOUserAgent foUserAgent = fopFactory.newFOUserAgent(); foUserAgent.setBaseURL(fopFactory.getBaseURL()); HttpServletResponse response = (HttpServletResponse) externalContext.getResponse(); response.reset(); response.setHeader("Content-Type", "application/pdf"); response.setHeader("Content-disposition", "attachment"); BufferedOutputStream output = null; try { output = new BufferedOutputStream(response.getOutputStream(), 10240); Fop fop = fopFactory.newFop(MimeConstants.MIME_PDF, foUserAgent, output); TransformerFactory transformerFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance(); Transformer transformer = transformerFactory.newTransformer(new StreamSource(xsltfile)); Source src = new DOMSource(makeXML(contract)); // my method Result res = new SAXResult(fop.getDefaultHandler()); transformer.transform(src, res); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } facesContext.responseComplete(); }` </code></pre> <p>When i remove <code>response.setHeader("Content-disposition", "attachment");</code> it opens in the same window, otherwise it asks me to save or open.</p> <p>Thanks in advance.</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.
