This code works fine. The application creates a xls file that is flushed by the response object to the client.

My doubt is: who manages that response? Is it the browser, the client's OS or the client's JVM who opens the window with open/save/cancel options?

The browser. The client JVM will not be running unless there is an applet on the page.
