Hi Paul, you have to set the header on the resource you want to download, not on the page containing the links. You can make a simple download method like this: <dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('content-type','application/octet-stream')> <dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('Content-Disposition','Attachment; Filename=' + id() +'.txt')"> <dtml-return "_[id()]"> as a method "download", so you can use yourdocument/download do download yourdocument.txt HTH. Tino Wildenhain PS: note: untested. May be you have to vary some things in the source, (like id() ) but it schould be good for a starting point. --On Dienstag, 29.

Hi,
Does anyone know how to setHeader of the RESPONSE to a document in Zope which would ordinarily be read as an html file will now be downloaded?
I list some files in a page and then I want to be able to download these documents, but of course the browser will load and render them.
I have tried: <dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('Content-Disposition','Attachment; Filename=' + document)">
where document is the &dtml-absolute_url; of the object I want. But it will give me a popup window to save the HTML file of the page that lists the files I want available for download.
<dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('refresh', '4;URL=' + document)">
Will of course get me the correct page as well, but again, the browser will render it since it is in fact of DTML Document type... But how do you force a download?
Thanks again, Paz
