In a web application I am working on, the user can click on a link to a csv file. There is no header set for the mime-type, so the browser just renders it as text. I would like for this file to be sent as a .csv file, so the user can directly open it with calc, excel, gnumeric, etc.
header('Content-Type: text/csv');
echo "cell 1, cell 2";
This code works as expected on my computer (Isnt that how it always is?) but does not work on another computer.
My browser is a nightly build of FF 3.0.1 (on linux) The browsers it did not work in were IE 7 and FF 3.0 (on windows)
Are there any quirks I am unaware of ? Thanks
