Image download ??
- Thread starter Vesku
- Start date
if u are trying to download an image, like GIF or JPG, you can try to change the content-type from image/jpeg to something like application/octet-stream (this is for exe file).<br><br>this is just a suggestion and i have never try this before. hope it will work.

I've used the method ttest suggested. On some browsers it works -- give it a content-type which is generally not associated with a program (even a bogus one) and it will try to download it. However, some browsers check the file header and will output the image in the browser anyway.<br><br>I would suggest you just output the image and let people right click on it to save it to their harddrive.<br><br>Otherwise, maybe you could zip it first.<br><br>Sincerely,<br><br>Tom Anderson<br>CEO, Order amid Chaos, Inc.<br><A HREF=" TARGET="_new">
