I'd like to use Javascript to make IE6 download a file. It'll be created on the fly using Javascript. This file doesn't exist on a webserver. Here's a small example:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function clicked() {
var xml = "<data>Just for testing</data>";
document.open("text/xml", "replace");
document.write(xml);
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="button" value="Download" onclick="clicked();" />
</body>
</html>
Instead of loading the xml in the browser window, I want it to cause IE6 to prompt the user where to download the data to so that it can be saved without them having to use File -> Save as. Any ideas?
