DownLoad Process

=?Utf-8?B?SHVzYW0=?=

Hi EveryBody:

I am working in ASP.Net 2.0 by Vb.Net the code behaind, My project Is a web
site that allow the user to upload and download file to the web site. I have
database that will save all the uploaded files by the user.

My question Is :

When you go to web site you find link that allow you to download that file
and when you click that link the poup up window show that direct and ask you
about the location that you want to download the file.

How can I make this process I tried to use the following Method

My.Computer.Net wprk.DownloadFi le("The URL","The destination path")

but did not work.

Any help or redirection about download file from the web will be appreciated

Use a "content-disposition" header:

You can use a "content-disposition" header to cause this behavior. See the
following MS KB article:

What is not working?

1. The pop up is not showing up and the file is opening?
Follow Kevin's advice

2. Not working at all, meaning "not opening", "not downloading", etc.?

If not, then are you getting a timeout or an error message of any kind? Or,
is it simply doing nothing? Are you typing Network as Netwprk, as in your
example?

I need more information to go on here if your experience falls under #2.

Does this exist anywhere in the world? (javascript download progress meter)

Hello, I've read quite a bit of discussion on different approaches of how to create a download progress meter that can be implemented into a Web site.

However, I've seen different theories on how it could be done if one knows the file size. Is anyone aware of a...

InetTransferLib Http download problem with zip files

I've been using Dev's fantastic InetTransferLib to upload and download files via ftp. Now I'm using the http procedures to have my application download zip files from my website.
