Hello,
I have OpenLayers request that calls a python function that returns a
GeoJSON formatted text. I can display the text contents in an alert box, but
would like to instead force the browser to offer the text as a GeoJSON file
to be downloaded. I would appreciate any help that anyone can offer on how
to do this...
My python script successfully returns a "Content-Type: application/json\n"
text to the browser, and my request and response code look like this so far:
var PM_request = OpenLayers.Request.GET({
url:'scripts/geoTiff2GeoJSON_edited.py',
callback:processData,
params:coords
//headers:{"Content-Type": "application/json\n"}
});
function processData(PM_request) {
var PMjson = new
OpenLayers.Format.JSON().read(PM_request.responseText);
//console.log(PMjson);
alert("Result is:" + PM_request.responseText);
}
I would like to add functionality to the processData function above that
opens a download window of some sort where once can acquire the GeoJSON
file...
Thank you,
VickH
