OK I know that. What I want to do is to have the save dialog displayed as if
it was a HTTP file download procedure. If you click on a ZIP file say
test.zip the save dialog will be displayed. I want to do the same but not
with a phisical file. Instead I want to do it with the content of the page
(text).

Subject: Re: [PHP] Forcing a dynamic created text file to be saved
Whether the save dialog is displayed is determined by the registry settings
for
the user's browser.
You cannot control that by what you send.

Hello all!
I have a PHP4 script that produces a text file and I would like that
when the user access this script the text content of it was forced to be
saved meaning that when the user selects it he/she will have the save
dialog form to save the text file with the filename specified in the
header function. So far I have managed to create the text file
dynamicaly but still I have to click the browser's save button to save
the file with the determined filename. I wanted it to be forced.
Does anyone know how to do it ?
Here's the code :
<?php
// Carlos Fernando Scheidecker Antunes : Test saving text files with
PHP
// this sets the content type as being plain text
header("Content-Type : text/plain; charset=3D\"iso-8859-1\"");
// this sets the file name
header("Content-Disposition: filename=3D\"test.txt\"");
// creates the dynamic content of the text file here
print("TextFile test\r\n\");
for ($i=3D1; $i < 100; $i++) {
print("This is line number ".$i."\r\n");
}
?>
Thanks,
Carlos Fernando Scheidecker Antunes
