Gentlemen,

        Thanks again for your illuminating responses.  As you have no doubt
surmised, most of the problem is that I don't know what I'm doing!
        I'm not doing anything esoteric; I'm just a re-noob whose last serious
foray into web apps was with cgi/perl over ten years ago.  So I'm sure
that the things I want to do are pretty standard...it is just that I'm
woefully ignorant.  Having said that, I've found Pylons a fairly
comfortable ride, and put up most of the app without too many issues.
        I did note Matt's suggestion of the META tag in an earlier email, but a
quick google search didn't yield anything that I was able to connect
with downloading.  But as you've indicated that this is a common
solution, I will take a better look this time around.  I don't mind
reading documentation; sometimes the problem is not knowing enough to be
able to ask the right question.
        Mike's suggestion about the redirect is also interesting, and
immediately made sense.
        I appreciate the pointers!

Best,
Tim
