Ok, thanks to you both. After further searching, it does seem like
Javascript would be required to make it more dynamic in the way I was
originally thinking.
Having the "yay" page come up and then automatically start the
download would be fine, though I assume that would mean I would have
to temporarily leave the sheltering embrace of pylons for the script.
I guess I could also just put a "Done" button somewhere below the
"download" button and have the user click that to move on.
Anyway, thank you for the responses. Knowing what is and isn't
possible seems to be half the battle sometimes.
