Just add these two line to your jsp.

response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename= " + file + ".ext");

out.print(text);

where

1) file = filename u want to display on the dialog box and also the name with which the file will be saved.

2) ext = extension of the file u want to save the file.

3) text = actual contents of the file which u want to write in the file.
