- the client has an admin connection to an admin utility that triggers the generation of the file, and flagging of the records that were exported.
- write the file (sql, csv, whatever) format and give it a unique file name (with serial number, timestamp, or something like that)
- In the result html, from the action that creates the file, inclue the URL to that file, being careful to use https
- you could skip writing to file and just generate the file to the result that gets pushed back to client. Only problem with that is that you don't know if the transfer was successful, so could you flag the records as having been exported?

Not sure how to do this. I want to be able to upload orders from my shopping
cart application to a Point of Sale system. The problem is that the POS is
located at the client's server.
I know I could write the file to my web server and then have them ftp the
file to their server, but I was wondering if there was a way write a file to
the work station where the client is browsing from instead of writing it to
my web server?
Thanks
