"open or save " a jpg file

am 02.08.2007 11:30:35 von giorgio

Hi,
I'd like to make the same thing as in flickr.com: a link that, if clicked,
doesn't open the jpg file, but asks if open or save it.

http://farm1.static.flickr.com/207/528622103_3a5c51e32b_o_d. jpg (asks if
open or save)
http://farm1.static.flickr.com/207/528622103_3a5c51e32b_o.jp g (link to jpg)

How can i make this?
Thanks

You need to get your server to send a

Content-Disposition: attachment

header. The way this is done depends on your server. If you are using
apache 2, you need to add eg:



header set Content-Disposition attachment



to the appropriate .htaccess file.

If you have not got permission to write to .htaccess, then you can still
botch it using php.

Response.AddHeader('Content-Disposition: header stuff... ');

do it before you send _any_ of the content back

This did not ask me anything. It just brought up my download OS
window (not browser), downloaded something and some image
software (set by me to open such files generally when I click on
..jpg in my file system) fired up and opened a pic of pups etc...
