how about simpler? from StringIO import StringIO stream = StringIO("test for echo") stream.write("oh crap") stream.seek(0) response.headers['Content-Type'] = 'text/plain; charset=us-ascii' response.headers['Content-disposition'] = 'attachment; filename=hsDNA_%s_IQa.py' % (qry[0][1]) return response.write(stream.getvalue())
but it only puts the string "None" in the downloaded file. i've tried it with cStringIO instead of StringIO, with and without the write method. i just can't get those strings to come across. -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
