Hi Nick,
I think your approach is the best bet. Isn't there a way to trigger the Save dialog from JavaScript, the way some sites are able to trigger the printing dialog?
Cheers
Hi everybody,
Thank you for reading this post. I need some help with storing pipeline results on the client side. The ultimate goal is to have somewhere a button, which, when clicked, will provide a "Save as" dialog box, so that the user will be able to save the produced XML to his or her file system.
When I was trying to implement that, I could not come up with anything better, than having a JavaScript enabled button, that will open a new browser window. Window's location will point to a pipeline which ends with an XML serializer with some non-default mime type (or I guess, I can make a reader for this purpose). As the result, the browser will not try to render the content, but rather offer a dialog box that prompts user to either select a suitable application to work with the file with or to save it to disk.
Are there any more elegant solutions? Thank you very much for your time.
Sincerely, Nick Goupinets.
