Slick gif ‘save as’ link?

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Feb 20.2004

Is there a way to provide a link to an image file that will open up a ‘save as’ dialogue, so that the user does not have to right click the link?

I’d be very grateful as it would make some bits of sites I’m working on look a little slicker and professional.

Many thanks Neil

@olafFeb 20.2004 — Hallo

you can use server-side scripting to thread the image as download.

Like, if the user clicks on the image a script-page is called with imagename on the querystring.

Look around there are a lot of download scripts in php...
