Hello again, Eric,
I guess there is something I don't understand about actions. Here is
the xml that defines the action for my content type's profile:
<action title="Download CSV" action_id="download-csv"
category="document_actions" condition_expr=""
url_expr="string:${object_url}/exportIdSheet" visible="True">
<permission value="Modify portal content" />
</action>
so I made a method in my content called exportIdSheet(self, REQUEST),
but when I click on the link that is generated from the xml above, it
says the page doesn't exist. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

Hello,
in the method implementing your action, you just need to set the
correct http header like this:
def doAction(self, REQUEST):
REQUEST.response.setHeader('Content-type','text/
csv;charset='+encoding)
REQUEST.response.setHeader('Content-Disposition',
"attachment; filename=export.csv")
return your_csv_content
note: to produce CSV, use the csv python module

Hello,
I would like to have a document_action link that calls a method which
generates a .csv file that is downloaded to the user's computer.
I've been
looking all around, but can't find a way do do this. Can anyone
point me in
the right direction? I already have figured out how to make the
document_action, so I just need to give it this functionality.
Thanks,
Craig
