Does anybody know a way I can achieve this result? As long as the "Content-Disposition: attachment" header is present, the browser will believe a file is being sent. One solution is to have two different links, with an optional download flag in the query string. Then, in your script, generate the Content-Disposition header for 'download' requests, don't otherwise. -- Matthew Weier O'Phinney Zend Certified Engineer http://weierophinney.net/matthew/
