  1. POExporting rendered HTML page to Word is not working in IE
    text
    copied!<p>I have a rendered HTML page that I am exporting to MS Word and downloading on a button click.</p> <p>Here is the code snippet in the button click.</p> <pre><code>` Me.EnableViewState = False Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-word" Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachments;filename=XXXXXXX.doc") Response.Buffer = True Response.BufferOutput = True` </code></pre> <p>The functionality works perfectly well in Firefox &amp; IE when I checked in system testing environment (locally). However when it was moved on to the hosting server (production environment) the functionality is not working in IE but is still working perfectly in Firefox.</p> <p>I am not sure on where to check for the exact issue. Could it be a caching related problem?</p> <p>In IE it is just not opening the download window which we will obtain when the rendered HTML content type is changed and the response stream is flushed. No exception is thrown.</p> <p>I received the following response header:</p> <pre><code>HTTP/1.0 200 OK Cache-Control: private Content-Length: 15189 Content-Type: application/vnd.ms-word; charset=utf-8 Server: Microsoft-IIS/7.5 X-AspNet-Version: 2.0.50727 Content-Disposition: attachments;filename=NewAccountForm.doc X-Powered-By: ASP.NET Date: Fri, 18 Mar 2011 10:18:07 GMT X-Cache: MISS from Gateway X-Cache-Lookup: MISS from Gateway:808 Via: 1.0 Gateway (squid/3.0.STABLE10) Proxy-Connection: keep-alive </code></pre>
