Hey Guys, here is what I am trying to solve.
I have a URL - somesite.com/server/pattern.x?some_more_stuff This URl is out there as an href tag on users website. Is there a way in which I can serve a file(not from my server) while ensuring that the users remain on the third party website. I am currently using this : myfile = "http://download.someothersite.com/somefile.exe"; meta_tag = "<html><head><meta http-equiv='Refresh' Content='1;URL=%s'></head></html>" % myfile return HttpResponse(meta_tag, content_type='force-download') The above works, however the user gets redirected to a blank page. Would downloading and serving the file from my server be a better option? If so, some pointers please. Do let me know what would be an elegant solution. The file sizes should be about 500kb(stub files). Thanks -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
