Show Save As Dialog of IE using Watin

Question

Anybody has done this? Navigating to a web page and pop up the save as dialog? In this way, the browser can handle the file type, html, pdf, etc...

Answer 1

Do you need to this to be when a FileHandler is called or on a static webpage?

If it is on a Handler page where the content type is returned then according the latest WatiN release documentation then you can do as follows:

using(IE ie = new IE(someUrlToGoTo)) { FileDownloadHandler fileDownloadHandler = new FileDownloadHandler(fullFileName); ie.AddDialogHandler(fileDownloadHandler);

ie.Link("startDownloadLinkId").Click();

fileDownloadHandler.WaitUntilFileDownloadDialogIsHandled(15); fileDownloadHandler.WaitUntilDownloadCompleted(200); }
