I'm not sure why we couldn't get the first one to work (I tried the others
on the off chance), but until I figure out what I've done wrong, the
solution of using a 4D method to do the blob creation works fine.

I was opening up the whole drive for testing purposes. I would have
remembered to narrow it down again...honest ;)

Thanks, should have thought to check the archive, this was exactly what we
needed. It now works on both safari and on windows versions of IE.

On Mac IE, it is still saving the file as "GetDocument.a4p" -but we ARE
talking about Mac IE. So unless you know of any other HTTP header that might
force this particular browser to behave itself, we're going to move on.


Thanks again
