Hi
My problem is probably simple. But I do not know, how to obtain directory from a client, to store a downloaded file. I mean, client can to point directory in his PC (something like SaveDialog in Windows.Forms), where a WebClient can send a file. Is there any component, to solve this problem? Thanks
Thank You Jason
There is HTML componet <input type="file"/> which put on the page button "Browse" , to enable user populate his FileSystem to select a file. But this is suitable only for file uploading . I ment, there must be something similar for DownLoad file... Dusan [quoted text, click to view] "Jason Brown [MSFT]" wrote:

You can't specify this. it's up to the user where the file gets saved. Or is

You can cause the browser to show the 'save as' dialog pretty easily by
sending a content-disposition header Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment;filename=somefile.extn") and/or making sure you send a mime-type the browser won't want to display by itself Response.ContentType = "application/unknown" but you can't specify where the user will put it. -- Jason Brown Microsoft GTSC, IIS This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

Your example works well, but this only can send entire page. I would need to send a file, saved in app. directory (likes zip,rar file). I mean, I would like to allow a client do download a file from main domain. What kind of parameters shoul I put in AppenHeader sub. Response.AppendHeader(string name?,string value?); Thank You Dusan [quoted text, click to view] "Jason Brown [MSFT]" wrote:

well, a file like that wouldn't be processed by the ASP engine by default,
so you'd have to open the file from ASP, then stream it.
