Mircea Toma noted that 'The renderer needs to render a target="blank" attribute..." I'm new to ICEfaces, but this seems strikingly similar to the reserved [link] target attribute value of "_blank", which has the following special meaning: "The user agent should load the designated document in a new, unnamed window." (http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/types.html#type-frame-target). Should this have been made "_blank" instead of "blank"?

hello!

i think there is still a bug in the OutputResourceComponent when using EL for the fileName attribute. i basically downloaded the .war file attached to this case, and added a few lines so it should be easily reproducible:

in OutputResourceBean.java:

public String getDynamicFileName()

and in outputResource.jspx:

<cust:outputResource id="otherPdf"
resource="#

"
mimeType="application/pdf"
value="Click to load pdf with dynamic filename"
fileName="#

"
/>

after clicking on "Click to load pdf with dynamic filename" the app dies with the following stack trace:

i will attached my .war file after this message.
my environment is netbeans 6.5, icefaces from svn (29.09.2008), glassfish2 that was bundled with netbeans.

best regards, armin walland

slightly modified version of the OutputResourceComponent-demoapp to illustrate exception when using EL in "fileName" attribute.

Re-opened. Looks like we forgot to commit some files for this that are required, and QA didn't get the tests so it didn't fail... (oops).

Let's make this right for 1.7.2 final.

checked into 1.7 branch and head
