Hi,
No need to open a new window - if it starts downloading you'll be left
with an empty window ;)
Just do an HTTP call to the server and your original page will remain
in the window if you have the correct headers going out from your
PHP...
Would you be so kind as to expand your suggestion, perhaps with a line
of code ?

Interestingly enough, when I do a window.open() and the script just does
a download, the window does not actually open, just the download
dialog. No orphan window after that (in FireFox).

Re: [Proto-Scripty] Re: File output
Ajax cannot process a file download in the same way it cannot process a file
upload...
You have to output the link and make the user click it

Subject: [Proto-Scripty] Re: File output
I'm not sure if it's the right way to do, but I just do an http call
(just link to the url), and make sure that my PHP script returns the
appropiate headers for the browser to download the file rather than
open it inline...
I don't think you need ajax for this...

The last php script, instead of generating html, writes a file to the

instead of displaying the result I want it to do a file download.
(http://www.phpclasses.org/browse/package/5797.html)
Now we get to the place I am lost.
I presume that instead of Ajax.updater I want to do something else
(Ajax Request ?) but I am not sure how to do this.

Re: [Proto-Scripty] Re: File output
you would be exactly right.
and to protect from hot linking then check the http referrer or a session
variable and if that fails then redirect to a landing page.
you want to investigate the following header info
//cache controlling
header(Cache-Control: public);
//force download
header(Content-Description: File Transfer);
//set filename
header(Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=export.csv);
there are others of course
