Doesn't everything with IE smell like a bug?
Anyhow, it works fine with Netscape. Opera will not open the file, but will
save-as just fine when prompted.
I'm off to search MS...<deity of choice> help me...

The dialog to save/open the file pops up, but when you try to open/save the
file, IE says it cannot be found. If I put in a echo before these two
headers (or comment them out), the page is shown correctly as HTML, so the
code is correct.
