i'm not sure what the original request was, but if what you want to do is
force the browser to open a "save as" dialog instead of try to display the
file in the browser, Fig Leaf has some code on their site explaining how to
force a download with the header info. maybe dave can post the URL again or
you can email him and ask.

I have a fix, but it is really horrable.
IE has a problem with headers saying 'ask the user where to put this', and
trys to sniff the datatype from the extension, resulting in it doing the
wrong thing.
In the end I used a tag that did the Right Thing for netscape, and some
horrable kludge for IE invloving a popup window and javascript to close it
again.
Let me know off list if you want it.
