    <p>I'm using Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + Server.HtmlEncode(FileName)); to pop a 'open/save file' dialog for the users, so that they can download an file on to their local machines.</p> <p>This is working good normally in IE7,But on IE6 the file is not opening when user click on the open button in 'open/save file' dialog. I gone through the net and found that Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "inline; filename="+Server.HtmlEncode(FileName)); should be provide to work that in IE6,and its works fine.. </p> <p>But the issue is most of the files that can open in browser opens on the page itself.. ie user on a mail page and click download an image file it opens there,, i need it to open in another window as in case of IE7 what can i do... other files that cannot open in bowser open with current application in system ie(word,excel etc)..</p> <p>please suggest a method to stick with same code for both IEs... The Code i used is here....</p> <pre><code>Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" +FileName); Response.AddHeader("Content-Length", file.Length.ToString()); Response.ContentType = ReturnExtension(file.Extension.ToLower()); Response.TransmitFile(file.FullName); Response.End(); private string ReturnExtension(string fileExtension) { switch (fileExtension) { case ".txt": return "text/plain"; case ".doc": return "application/ms-word"; case ".xls": return "application/vnd.ms-excel"; case ".gif": return "image/gif"; case ".jpg": case "jpeg": return "image/jpeg"; case ".bmp": return "image/bmp"; case ".wav": return "audio/wav"; case ".ppt": return "application/mspowerpoint"; case ".dwg": return "image/vnd.dwg"; default: return "application/octet-stream"; } } </code></pre>
