Subject: Re: [Proto-Scripty] Re: File output
you would be exactly right.
and to protect from hot linking then check the http referrer or a session
variable and if that fails then redirect to a landing page.
you want to investigate the following header info
//cache controlling
header("Cache-Control: public");
//force download
header("Content-Description: File Transfer");
//set filename
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=export.csv");
there are others of course

open it inline...
I don't think you need ajax for this...
