Downloading BLOB from Web-Datablade: How-To assign a filename
Posted in 1999
Hi, In one of our Websites, build withthe Web-Datablade, we offer users the possibility to up- and download files (Word-documents etc). Uploading is no problem. In the Table we store: - filename - mimetype (ie: applicaton/msword) - the BLOB On downloading we use the webdriver: < A HREF=/cgi/webdriver.exe?LO=00000000d9c8b7a60200000002000000600000005543dd3600000000010000000000000062696e616972740c07194400a881720c0c68740cf8334800a881720c2068740c01000000& type=application/msword&filename=test.doc> Download (MS Word document (*.doc))</A><BR> When the user wants to save the file in IE4 or Netscape The SaveDialog gives as filename webdriver(1) That's the problem! The browser should suggest as filename the value of the field filename! Can anyone tell us if that's possible? John Leerentveld<jl@ibt.nl>
