New Article About Forcing the Save As Dialog in a Browser

Yesterday I published a new article that answers a very frequently asked question: "How can I force the browser to present the Save As dialog, instead of having the file opened by the browser?" I published it in the ASP category of the Articles section, because it was a bit too long for a FAQ. You can find the article here.

The article presents an ASP solution for this problem and discusses the benefits and disadvantages. I'll post a PHP version in the FAQ section someday.....


Where to Next?
