BoltZ Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Are you asking how to open a popup window? How to let the user download a zip file? You are being vague my friend.

rashmi_k28 Posted November 4, 2008 Author Share Posted November 4, 2008 I have the code which opens the file in word format when clicked on link. In Mozilla browser, a window opens asking whether to open the file or save on the disk. But in IE it doesnot ask and just opens in word format. I want something similar to Mozilla.

rashmi_k28 Posted November 4, 2008 Author Share Posted November 4, 2008 How to get the dialog as we get in Mozilla for IE.

Adam Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Why what does IE do? If the browser doesn't have an "open with" dialogue box there's no way of getting one to appear..? IE does have the "Open", "Save As" (or something) and "Close" dialogue box, I think firefox's is just better!
