Hello, AF>As an aside, if anyone on the list knows of ways to defang this really AF>annoying IE behavior, I would be most interested in knowing about it....
Two (and probably more) ways to do it. This is probably in a FAQ somewhere as it is a common problem. (1) Fool IE by snarfing another extension in the URL. For example, instead of requesting http://www.example.com/foo.pl, tack on a dummy parameter and request http://www.example.com/foo.pl?filename=foo.txt. (2) Send a Content-Disposition header. This is a MIME header and not in the HTTP spec but IE respects it: Content-Disposition: inline; filename=foo.txt Humbly, Andrew ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew Ho http://www.tellme.com/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] Engineer 1-800-555-TELL Voice 650-930-9062 Tellme Networks, Inc.
