You can not. It's up to the browser what does it do with content it fetched. Apparently IE7 does file type autodetection (IE is known to do that) and does whatever it wants. You could however try "Content-Disposition: attachment" header to hint the browser how the file should be handled. -- Matus UHLAR - fantomas, uhlar@xxxxxxxxxxx ; http://www.fantomas.sk/ Warning: I wish NOT to receive e-mail advertising to this address.
