Thanks so much to all for the replies... Michael's method works work for a static page... but as the (*.php) page gets data from a PostgreSQL database to display it "breaks", not unreasonably, when it is saved using this method as a *.html. Fun to learn new stuff... I am off to try and learn how I can make this work, with the leads provided... :-) In the *meantime*, under the "Save As HTML" icon I have put some text letting the user know about File... Save Page As... (or ... Save As...) I am going to look at maybe using this method with a PDF generation method to 'make' the page as a PDF for them to download... Thanks again... what a resource...

As a quick answer, I think the easiest way is to have a link reload the page, with a flag to set the content disposition header. See: http://us3.php.net/header Example #1 It should be fairly straightforward from there. If I do recall, there may be some quirks with IE, a quick google should bring up any workarounds. If you cannot allow a refresh, the solution may be far more complicated, using the document object model in javascript, or php output control. In that case, I would ask your users to just use the Save-as function instead.

The user, via a button, could then 'download' this page much like if they had gone to their "File... Save Page As.." menu to save it locally. This is for a (dynamic) page that I have written in PHP that formats and presents some query results - and the results presented vary based on the user's selection of parameters on an earlier page. Any suggestions? This 'one click' menu is for users "resistant" to learning how to do the "File... Save Page As..." method...
