[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - itext pdf in Firefox

Mon Oct 29 13:05:40 EDT 2007

Hi,

I have a trouble visualizing pdfs with firefox

even when I use : 

  | <pdf:documentStore useExtensions="true" />
  | 

Firefox takes me to a page with the following source code

  | <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>
  | <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd" >
  | <html><head><meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="0; URL=ticket.pdf?docId=1&cid=9&clr=true" /></head><body></body></html>
  | 

I guess this is because I do not manage to use the useExtensions="true"  property well

This pdf page is called from a button that triggers a method that loads some parameters  before it redirects to the pdf page.

Here is the calling snipet from the web page :

  | 		
  |                     <h:dataTable value="#{client.serviceOrders}" var="so" rendered="#{not empty client.serviceOrders}">
  |                 
  | 
  | 			<h:column >
  | 				<c:facet name="header">Identifiant Artemis</c:facet>                        
  | 				<h:outputText value="#{so.artemisId}" rendered="#{so.status.code != 2}" />
  | 			</h:column>
  | 	
  | 			<h:column >
  | 				<c:facet name="header">Date de prise commande</c:facet>                        
  | 				<h:outputText  value="#{so.sellTime}" rendered="#{so.status.code != 2}" /> 
  | 			</h:column>
  | 	
  | 			
  | 			<h:column >
  | 				<c:facet name="header">Prix TTC</c:facet>                        
  | 				<h:outputText  value="#{so.amountWithTaxes}" rendered="#{so.status.code != 2}" />
  | 			</h:column>
  | 
  | 			<h:column>
  |                               <c:facet name="header">Detail - Prestations complémentaires</c:facet>
  |                                         <!--#{potentialEditedAccount.account.fullname}-->
  |                                    <h:commandButton   action="#{serviceOrderManager.viewOrder(so)}" value="Detail" rendered="#{so.status.code != 2}" />
  |                               </h:column>
  | 
  | 			<h:column>
  | 				<c:facet name="header">Cloture - Encaissement - Reçu - Facture</c:facet>
  |                                         <h:commandButton  action="#{serviceOrderManager.startClosingOrder(so)}" value="Cloturer la commande" rendered="#{so.status.code == 0 and empty so.payments }"/>
  | 					<h:commandButton   action="#{paymentHandler.setOrderforCBPayment(so)}" value="Payer la commande par CB"  rendered="#{so.status.code == 1 and not so.paid}"/>
  | 					<h:commandButton   action="#{paymentHandler.setOrderForChequePayment(so)}" value="Payer la commande par chèque"  rendered="#{so.status.code == 1 and not so.paid}"/>
  | 
  | 
  | <h:commandButton  action="#{serviceOrderManager.viewTicket(so)}" value="Reçu" rendered="#{not empty so.payments }"/>
  | 
  | 				<h:commandButton  action="#{serviceOrderManager.viewTicket(so)}" value="Facture" rendered="#{not empty so.payments }"/>
  |                                     </h:column>
  | 	
  | 						
  | 			
  | 		</h:dataTable>		
  | 
  | 

here is the called method :

  | public String viewTicket(ServiceOrder order) {
  |         
  |         serviceOrder = entityManager.merge(order);
  |         return "ticket";
  |     }
  | 

here is my pages.xml snipet

  | <rule if-outcome="ticket">
  |                 <redirect view-id="/ticket.xhtml"/>
  |             </rule>  
  | 

I have also added the needed modification to components.xml

  | <pdf:documentStore useExtensions="true" />
  | 

and in web.xml

  | <!-- PDF filter -->
  |    <filter>
  |     <filter-name>Seam Servlet Filter</filter-name>
  |     <filter-class>org.jboss.seam.servlet.SeamServletFilter</filter-class>
  | </filter>
  | 
  | <filter-mapping>
  |     <filter-name>Seam Servlet Filter</filter-name>
  |     <url-pattern>*.pdf</url-pattern>
  | </filter-mapping>
  | 
  | <servlet>
  |     <servlet-name>Document Store Servlet</servlet-name>
  |     <servlet-class>org.jboss.seam.pdf.DocumentStoreServlet</servlet-class>
  | </servlet>
  | 
  | <servlet-mapping>
  |     <servlet-name>Document Store Servlet</servlet-name>
  |     <url-pattern>*.pdf</url-pattern>
  | </servlet-mapping>
  | 

my pdf renders well with IE and Konqueror (which do not need the useExtensions)

Thanks in advance for your help
