Force Save AS
Is there a way to force a file to be saved instead of using the "default action". In my situation, I've got a series of MP3 files that are being used by my chorus as a learning tool for learning the current music quickly. I have instructions on the site telling them to save the files to their hard drives and to play them from there.
However, people are just clicking on the links and their default MP3 players are trying to play the files. Now, I have compressed the files pretty hard because some were griping about the filesizes, so if they are played right off the link, the quality is a bit choppy. If they save it to their hard drive and play it there, it sounds fine.

Save As Dialog Box
When users submit a Form with a SQL query, the resultset is retrieved from a MS-Access database table which is then exported to an MS-Excel worksheet. After the records get exported to MS-Excel, I want to give users the option to download the Excel file to their local machine.
In other words, when users click a download link, I want the Save As.. dialog box to pop-up so that users can save the Excel file to their local machine (note that I don't want users to view the Excel worksheet in their browser). This is how I tried it: Code:

What is the appropriate control or code to pop a "save as" dialog window to

Communicate With A Forced "Save As" Dialog Box
I'm puzzled on a how to communicate with a forced "Save As" dialog box. Here's the scene, I've got this script that creates a fun little file on the web server then prompts the user to pick a local path to download the same file via "save as" box.
The problem is I can't seem to find a way to grab the results of the save dialog box and react accordingly. For instance, upon a hitting the "Cancel" button I need to perform action B, but if everything works as planned I'd like to perform action A. Is this possible? Can anyone point me in the right direction or build me a stronger wall?

View Replies View RelatedForce Refresh
My main page shows a table to which a user can add data to by clicking on a button, this in turn loads up a pop up window where the data to be entered is typed. Once the data is submitted the popup window is closed via Close button, but the table on the main IE page only shows the updated information if the refresh button is clicked.
All i want to know is, is there a way of forcing refresh of the main page when the close button in the popup window is clicked. Code used for the close button:
<TD><a href="javascript:self.close()" title="Close"><IMG align="center" src="http://localhost/***/close.gif" alt="Close Window"></a></TD>

Force Full URL
Just curious: is there a bit of ASP code you can place in the top of a document that will force all root relative image and file paths in the HTML of this doc to expand to include the full URL?
I doubt it, but before I did it manually, I thought I'd ask. We use a template of sorts, but need one document to use the full URL, and it would better to just have it that way in the one document and not the entire template.
Modal Web-dialog
I would have liked to submit a form from a modal web dialog, i.e. a window
opened using showModalDialog() in which there is a form to submit. I thought the
dialog content would be replaced with the submitted page results but I saw a new
instance of MSIE instead.
Is this behaviour normal (I mean expected)? (How) can I replace a web dialog
content with submission page (i.e. the url in the form "action" attribute)
results?

Force Download Of .pdf Files
The below code forces a prompt to the user to open or save the .pdf file file to their local machine. It seems to work great except I have one user who can not open any .pdfs using this prompting method. He gets an error that says "File could not be found". However, if we choose the 'save' option instead, we can save the file to his local machine. He can open .pdf files from normal links to .pdf files. It's just this prompting method that is causing a problem. So, I'm perplexed.
I did some digging and found that there is also an FSO (File System Object) method (which may or may not solve my problem), but I'm not sure how to impliment the FSO or if that will even help me with this.
