If the server delivers that with the http header Content-Type: application/binary then you should get the browser behavior you're looking for. If, instead you have Content-Type: text/html or Content-Type: text/plain or something else the browser is prepared to render, then it will render the page. -- Raul _______________________________________________ Rails-spinoffs mailing list Rails-spinoffs@lists.rubyonrails.org http://lists.rubyonrails.org/mailman/listinfo/rails-spinoffs
