Does the XL file open directly in Excel, or is it hosted in IE ?

Yea, the headers that you have noted had already been added, except it's not
"inline;", its "attachment;". Sorry, I should have mentioned that. I've tried
"inline;" and not only does it default to Save As Web Page, it does not have
the option of saving as an .xls file.

Try something like:

Response.AddHeader "Content-Disposition", "inline; filename=weberport1..xls"
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel"

(above is ASP syntax)

When I export html code in the .jsp to excel, and I open the .xls file,
and
try to Save As, the file type automatically defaults to webpage file. I
want
it to default to .xls file.

I have tried a number of methods. I have tried exporting from the .jsp
with
no code at all(basically it opens a empty .xls file). This tried to save
the
.xls file as a text delimited. When I added only the <html</html tags,
it
returned to trying to save as webpage. I suspect that there must be some
tag(or at least some identification flag) that sets the Save As filetype
accordingly, but I cannot find where or what it is.

Thank you.
