In perl I've used the following hack:
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
open (FILE, "/path/to/file");
local ($/);
$file = <FILE>;
close (FILE);
print "Content-type: application/x-unknown\n";
print "Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=file.tsv\n";
print "Content-Description: This is a tab-delimited file.\n\n";
print $file;
to present a "Save As..." dialog box and force the download of a file,
rather than have it displayed within the browser.
I'm looking for a way to do the same thing in ColdFusion, can anyone provide
pointers or a sample?
Thanks...
Pete
