if you make a download with the suggested header directives you won't be able to open the file
directly (well not without clicking on open for 3 times) but would have to download it.
here's what we did to make a csv-download without the disturbing
'do-you-want-to-open-or-save-the-file-dialogs': we added a line in the httpd.conf of the
apache-server and made csv-files being processed by the php-module.
add the following in the according virtual-host directive (or if you dare for the whole server).
<VirtualHost your-ip-address>
ServerName your-host-name
DocumentRoot your-app-path
# this is for the file downloads
AddType application/x-httpd-php .csv
</VirtualHost>
then we renamed the php-file that generated the csv-content to 'download.csv' and made a
link to it from another page
