That's correct. Aside from writing a plug-in/add-on for X-browser to handle the user clicking on download for your site, this would most likely be your only option. Because of sandbox restrictions between the client (browser) and server (web app), you will not be able to pick up on client-side events of that nature. If so, it would be a pretty big security hole in the browser and even though it may work for IE, it would not work for Firefox, Safari, etc. Mike Duncan ISSO, Application Security Specialist Government Contractor with STG, Inc.
