File Downloading Problem In Firefox.
i am having prob while downloading a file in firefox. If the filename contains
spaces it takes only name before the first space. The rest of the part in the filename is egnored....
i use the following code for it.
--
Response.Addheader "Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" & filename
----
example if the filename is "sample filename.doc". while downloading it saves as "sample" the rest of the part filename.doc is removed.
The above code works fine in IE. Can anyone here tell me how i can handle this in firefox v1.

There any way to download files I'm keeping stored above the www
folder for security
I'm thinking of the following : My script determines what file the user
requests, checks their credentials, and then "forwards" the file from the
non public directory to the user.

I have a download function that allows a site visitor to download a file. It works when the page that calls the function, the function, and the file to download are all in the same folder. I want to be able to have the page that calls in one folder, the function in another folder and the file in a third. Any advice? Code that is working when all three are together:
Function doDownload (fileName)
dim myAttachment
myAttachment = "attachment; filename=" & fileName
Response.AddHeader "Content-Disposition", myAttachment
Response.ContentType = "application"
response.BinaryWrite fileName
End Function

I have an asp script on a server. However whenever I link to the script, instead of running it, the browser displays a message saying. "You are downloading the file "filename" from "server name" Would you like to open this file or save it to your computer ?

I want to create a asp page where i can give the user an option of downloading a file or opening a file e.g an excel file.
How do i do this?? Ive already created an asp page which has a button- where the user can click on the button. The excel option of either opening the file or downloading it comes up- but i want this option actually on a asp page. How do I go about this?

I have been lately dealing with developing an ASP based web application which uploads documents to a folder. Application itself is password protected by the session.
I am now looking for securing the documents that are uploaded.
For example;
Let's say AAA.doc is uploaded to "/docs" folder by this password-protected application. But, I can't prevent the following link to download this Word document:
(URL address blocked: See forum rules)
How can I prevent the above link to download AAA.doc? Is it something possible to restrict it with a session variable? I also want the user who are authenticated at the beginning to view or download the file, but unauthenticated users shouldn't view it.
I found some articles but they are speaking about IIS level things. Folders may be created dynamically. Is it possible to have this security feature at application level?

I have written code to download the file stored in the database.
according to some condition the data in database is written using binary write.
If Not rs.EOF Then
Response.ContentType = rs("Content Type")
Response.BinaryWrite rs("File Data")
End If
but when i try to write some filles other than pictures, it will prompt to save the asp file. Code:

I use the following code in an asp.net page to download file from my site to the user:
Response.Buffer = True
Response.Clear()
Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream"
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=""" & dsDocFile.Tables("tbl_DocFile").Rows.Find(FileID).Item("FileName") & """")
Response.Flush()
Response.WriteFile(sFileName)
This works with most every file type I've run across (jpg, gif, doc, ppt, xls, etc..). Normally when the user tries to access a file, a download window pops up asking the user whether he/she wants to open or save the file.
However, when the file is a zip file, the user just receives a blank screen instead of the usual download window. Has any one run into this problem? If yes, how did you resolve it?

I am currently working on an ASP based site which displays largely numerical data, which is stored in an access database. I have been asked to create an 'export' page, which, when working properly will allow a user of the site to export the table he or she is looking at and export it to a .CSV file which they can save onto their own machine.
My problem lies here, I can create the .CSV file on the server, BUT permissions on our host are such that the file can only be saved to the 'databases' folder and not on the webroot.
Is there any way in which I can either setup a way for the user to download from the databases folder? or rather than creating the file on the server, directly write the file to the user's machine?

I need to provide a way to download a software and its corresponding
manual from a web page.
So far I have done the sign in page where people give their data. I
will then give access to a page with a link allowing to download the
required file(s).
My worry is how to avoid that somebody grabs the URL of the file and
send it to another for downloading directly from the server. What can
I do to avoid this ?

I have set of mp3 files as a list (DownloadFiles.asp). The user can click on any of the mp3 files to download(Download_Porcess.asp).After downloading the file the user has to redirect to the DownloadFiles.asp.
For this i used:
response.contenttype="audio/mpeg3",
response.binarywrite("binarystreamofmp3file)
In Download_Process.asp to force the save dialog box. This works fine. This allows the user to download the file. After downloading this mp3 file, this file should not be displayed in the list ie in (DownloadFiles.asp).
How can i do this?
I am not able to redirect from Download_Process.asp to DownloadFiles.asp, b'coz I used response.binarywrite.

I've been trying to send a (large) file to the browser via a download
page that uses a file download component. The file downloads fine,
except that Internet Explorer refuses to browse to a different page
while the file is downloading! I don't understand why it does that
and I don't know how to fix this problem.
Any idea? Code:

The site in question is Roger Funk Cars
In IE it works fine. In FireFox when the page is displayed the navigation bar on the left side does not expand down, it leaves a gap. This happens on all pages depending on how much the side bar has to expand. The strange part is that if I refresh the page it will start working right.

I'm almost finished with an ASP app that takes HTML form input and outputs that info into XML-ready text. The ASP creates the tags as follows:
Response.Write("<"&"item"&">"), which works fine in IE, I get a nice
<item>
But in firefox I get:
<item>
Any ideas?

I have following code, picking an ID and saving it to Cookies.
<%
ItemID = Request("prod")
Response.Cookies("THREES")(ItemID) = Request("prod")
Set rdset=objConn.Execute("SELECT ID, Name, Large, Description
FROM shop_products WHERE ID=" & ItemID)
%>
In IE it works fine as it should, adding item id to Cookies
In Firefox it gives me the following error:
Cookies object, ASP 0102 (0x80004005)
The function expects a string as input.
/shop/addcart.asp, line 27
Any information on that. Any idea what is going wrong.

I put some code together below, so you can see what I mean:rcntech.com/development/ajaxcars.asp
If you test the link above with IE works as it is supose to, however it doesn't display any elements withing the <form> tags in Firefox.
By the way, I am loading the page using AJAX, if you call the ASP directly in Firefox then it works fine, but that's not what I am trying to achieve.rcntech.com/development/login.asp

I am using Response.BinaryWrite to write a PDF to the browser. Everything works great on IE and Safari but when I try to use Firefox the browser hangs. The title bar says application/pdf but nothing ever shows up. Going directly to the pdf works fine but unfortunately am unable to do that in the long run and must use BinaryWrite.

When pulling information through from the database on firefox (using an asp document with a css), firefox seemed to be truncating the page. This is possibly due to an assumption of the amount of lines needed. To sort this and so to have scroll bars you will need to add another 'blank' div just underneath with a couple of line breakers ( <br />) this way, the asp sees that there is something physical upon the page apart from the original info pulled through from the database and thus displays the scroll bars!!!

I know some of the gurus round here use Firefox a lot. I'm experiencing problems with using:
Code:
<% Response.Buffer = True

It never seems to flush the buffer. Does anybody have any ASP script with buffer flushing involved? Do they work for you on Firefox?

On our test server, the site works fine, but on production (the link above), if you click around the inside pages in FireFox, the left (navigation) column often loads at more than 100% of the sites width. If you press refresh, the page looks correct?
We are a microsoft shop, and this site is done in ASP.I'm the designer on this project, and there is seperate database programmer and support team (our publishers/admins) that have looked at this, and we can't figure it out. Any ideas? I may post this in another area of the forums because I'm not positive what issue this relates to.
