Hi,

I am having trouble with a non standard download method. I want to provide
a download link to a file, but not the standard one, because I would get
the id as the filename. The id is a random value and thus not suitable for
the customer. The real filename is saved in the title property.

So I created a dtml method "download" like this one:

<dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('Content-Type', content_type)">
<dtml-call "RESPONSE.setHeader('Content-Disposition',  
           'inline;filename='+title)">
<dtml-var please_give_me_the_raw_data>

And the link is:

HREF="/some/where/my_file/download"

Everything works fine with the filename. But how do I spill out the raw
data to the browser? Any ideas ?

Thanks for your help...
