@Declan1991Apr 02.2009 — #HTML cannot force a download, only PHP can. Other than that, it is the settings on the browser that determine how the file is handled. Normally (well Firefox and Opera I'm most familiar with), give the user a choice of opening a file or downloading it, IE in this case obviously defaultly opens it.

Also in #HTML _↴
