Download file has HTML in it.

[forest demon]

i have a file on the server, then use the following code to dialog the
file to the local client.
in stepping through the code the file length (fLen) is correct, but
when i look at the file after
download, it has all the HTML markup appended to the file. i've played
with this a number of
different ways but to no avail.

any help is much appreciated.
string root = @"C:\temp\";
string filepath = @"C:\temp\tempo_file.csv";
FileInfo fyl = new FileInfo(filepath);
string fLen = fyl .Length.ToString();
if ((filepath != null))
{
if (File.Exists(filepath) & filepath.StartsWith(root))
{
Response.Clear();
Response.ContentType = "text/plain";
Response.AddHeader("Content-Length", fLen);
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;
filename=\"" + fyl.Name + "\"");
Response.Flush();
Response.TransmitFile(filepath);
}
}

thanks...

In the ASPX portion of the page, you need to remove ALL markup except for the
@Page declaration line.
