In other words you would basically have to download the image then the client's 
local mime-type logic should kick in to open the viewer. Except most clients 
aren't likely to have a tiff viewer no?

What's the standard logic to initiate a file download from a web server?

If you are working in a web interface, you cannot interact with the desktop
at that level due to security.  You would be constrained to opening that
image through the web interface through whatever application the user has
configured in their operating system for the file type.

Is it possible to use the ctrl-click command to open a file locally, without
it opening in the browser?  The problem I'm having is finding the right
script to edit if it is possible to open a tiff image locally.  I've spent
several days, and spent hours upon hours trying to find a solution online,
and nothing has worked so far.  So if anyone could help, it would be greatly
appreciated!!!
