Hi guys,
I'm using a CGI script to control authorisation to file downloads. The
script takes the users authorisation from a web page, checks an authorise
file and if the details match, it delivers the requested file (which sits
outside of the web server's sphere of influence) to the browser for
download.
Little problem - this all works fine, but the file name is not returned to
the browser's download box - if I want to download a file called "file.zip",
the download box will try to save the file as "download.pl" (which is the
post-to script's name).
Is there any way, ideally via the CGI headers, to return the filename so
that the browser tries to save the file under the correct name?
I'm currently using this for the CGI header:
print $query->header(-type=>'application/octet-stream',
-Content-length=>$fsize,
-nph=>1);
Cheers,
