 Hello!
I have written a servlet that is used to download a file from a client
browser.
Instead of reading the file on my server, and using a PrintWriter( ) to send
the file to the HttpServletResponse response,
I just used a redirection:

    public void doGet(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)
{
   .....

   response.sendRedirect(FileName);

   .....
}

But I would like to know in my servlet is the file has been downloaded
succesfully. Since the redirection doesn't return any value, I was wondering
if it is possible to get this information.

Thanks in advance,
-Aur
