If you want to force all browsers to download the document (instead of viewing it) you will need to set some HTTP headers in a script, and have the script pass through the document - instead of linking to the document, you will need to link to that script.
how to do this ? thanks a lot mitchy !
The header needed for this is content-disposition. However there is a problem with it nearly every browser on earth supports it flawlessly but the IE implementation of it .... .... ... well it is about as good as ms normally adheres to standards. Ie it is broken, half done, doesn't work with some patch levels of IE etc Check the ms knowledge base on it to see what the problems are.
