ASP - Wrong URL - Asked By srinivas gajavada on 18-Jun-01 02:46 PM

Response.AddHeader "Content-Disposition","attachment; filename=test.zip"
Response.ContentType = "application/zip"
Response.CacheControl = "public"

followed by streaming code....

When I run this code, instead of showing the TEST.ZIP filename in the download dialog box it shows the ASP filename itself. But finally it saves TEST.ZIP. 

i am using IE 5.01(SP1) on WIN 2K IIS 5.0
Can anyone help me on this ?

When I redirect directly to the zip file via URL, I'm automatically prompted to download.

Are you trying to do something different?

yes. me too download box is prompted but file name in the dialog box is showing ASP filename(in which i had written code) instead of TEST.ZIP !!!

Here's what's in the following URL.  Run it...

http://www.eggheadcafe.com/test.asp


  <% response.redirect "/articles/20010418.zip" %>

 I only see the .zip dialog box.

I am basically forcing the "File Download" dialog box for both known/unknown MIME types(doc,pdf,zip,tar etc) related to the Microsoft article 
http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q260/5/19.asp
and streaming the data.

Response.AddHeader "Content-Disposition","attachment; filename=test.pdf" 
Response.ContentType = "application/pdf" 
Response.CacheControl = "public" 

and steaming code...

I'm sorry.  I've never needed to do this.  I read the sub article.  Are you sure your file complies with it's requirements for suitable content.
