The only fiddly bit is to make sure you set the cookies correctly (see the
documentation for details).
For example:
{{view}}
response.files.append(URL('static','js/jquery.fileDownload/jquery.fileDownload.js'))
{{controller}}
response.js =
'$.fileDownload("http://127.0.0.1:8000/sgddms/label/download_func1?var1=2676&var1=2673&var1=2678";);'
response.js +=
'$.fileDownload("http://127.0.0.1:8000/sgddms/label/download_func1?var1=2676&var1=2673&var1=2678";);'
# these cookies are required by jQuery.fileDownload.js
# to enable download via ajax
response.cookies['fileDownload'] = 'true'
response.cookies['fileDownload']['path'] = "/"
