I have an array that is made and modified in a function. At the end of the function I want to have the array to be sent as a file to be downloaded to the user. How can I go about doing this?
View 7 RepliesI am trying to create a way for my users to download some code dynamically from my web page via a file download. Below is the code that i have written so far. It seems to be dying on the iframe but i'm not sure why.
Here is my jquery trigger which is inside my onreadystate function.
$('#export_txt').click(function(e){
alert(LPAjax.ajaxurl + "/download.php");
$.generateFile({
action: "download_txt",
filename: "exportme.txt",

I need to have a submit input button automatically start a download when clicked, but also redirect to an additional "information" page. Since I'm not sure if this can simply be solved with HTML or must use some Javascript.

I implemented Malsups jquery form and use it for ajax file uploads. Works fine in FF, but in IE as soon as the ajax has completed the upload IE gives me a File Download box - Security warning. If I click on save it save thereturnedJson object (I do JS call onsuccessto get a file list and display it). If I click cancel or save on the popup has same effect the file still gets uploaded but just looks ugly.
How can I get rid of this? All coming form the same domain, calling from the same domain. This is on a python django project and I am testing it on the dev server.
Its pretty basic jquery nothing to exciting, don't get why IE would cause.
I'm using ASP.NET and setting window.location.href in my web page to output an audio file that the user is prompted to download. I would like to provide a link so that the user can download the audio file and an XML file one after the other. I've been experimenting with opening a new
window, but there must be a cleaner way of doing this.
I need to allow user to download mp3 files when they click on the link rather than streaming the audio in the browser. Need to use only Javascript to download the file.

Says: I have the zip file test.zip, it is 10 mega bytes long. But I
don't want the 10 mega today. Today I want 5 mega bytes. Tomorrow I
could want more 3 mega bytes of the file, but it is not sure, could be
4 mega bytes. I need to part the zip file in chunks at request. No CGI,
no asp, no php. Only client side scripts.
i noticed today that if i type in my js file name in the url i get a download box, i have an htaccess on my site so this should not be happening, thats another issue.. my question is, is there a trick to creating a js file that cant be accessed in this manner, i was thinking about adding a php define statement as it comes from one source only, but i wanted to ask first to see if there was something on the js side i could do or is that strictly a htaccess or server side issue..
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm wanting a message box to appear when a user clicks on a link that pops up a message. Once they click "OK' on the message box, a file download box pops up letting them open/save the file.
Basically a person clicks on a link for a class. A message box pops up saying "Please print and bring the following papers to class." When they click "OK", the *.pdf file pops up ready to be downloaded.
I know there got 1 function is fileUpload, the code is like this:
<input type="file" name="filename" size="35">
After that will prompt out 1 dialog box to let user to select file to upload.
*User must select 1 file to upload.
How about If I just want to browse the path? and I do not want to select a file but create a filename by myself?
Actually I just want to specify the path and filename so that later I can create 1 file by using the filename and create the file in that path.

Can anyone help me with the javascript code.
I would like to create in my site a picture that when a user clicks on
it, a javascript code which determines which file is to be downloaded
to the user, is ran.
My problem is that I do not know how to make the file that was chosen
by the javascript code to be downloaded to the user.
I know how to do it statically (using anchor) what I'm looking for is
how to do it dynamically.
Is there a way to get jQuery to download a js file in the background without parsing it? I have a CMS with a login form, which may take the user 3-5 seconds to fill in the data. I am thinking that if I can pre-load my js scripts which are used after the login page, then this will make things quicker after they login. Can this, and should this, be done?

I have a website which displays routes on a map. The data behind this is held in a MySQL database. What I want to do is to be able to click a button and the current route information would be download in a gpx file (xml variant) for that route, built from the database. I'm using shtml, Javascript and perl. Is it possible? The formatting of the data is not an issue. I am a real novice and have self taught enough to get where the site is today, so please be gentle.

I am trying to trigger the download of a file from the browser (at the moment a word file!).
But when I supply the link as an '<a href='...'>' html tag the document appears in the browser. Although this is quite good I unfortunately need to open up the download dialog box.
I developped a SW for restaurants, pub, ecc...
It's developped in php (and html, javascript, mysql) and runs by an Apache webserver (phpdev 4.2.3). The my system is not absolutely connected to the web.
It is a client-server system: in the server is installed Apache, while the clients are PCs where only a web browser (IE) is running, connected to the server via Wi-Fi.
I have the following problem:
I want to show in the clients some videos (huge files); therefore I would kike to avoid to download them everytime from the server (in order to not overload the Wi-fi network).
The client should call a php page from the server, but the video file should be downloaded from the own (client) HD.
The question is:
Is it possible to open a file (in my case a video file) on the Local HD of the client PC by a javascript?
Please consider that, if it could be a restriction problem on the client PC, I can change the configuration because it is not an internet application.
I need to download and read one *.json file in my javascript. Do you know about some library or the best how to do that? The best would be be if the solution would work in all web-browsers.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a number of image files that have been pre-selected by the user
for downloading. I'd like to be able to have the user click a button
and have a directory browser pop-up window available for the user to
select the directory into which the image files will be downloaded.
I thought that this would be simple to find but...
If this is possible I further need to know:
1) how to access the directory path string (which will be used to
download the files)
2) how to set any available default values for the directory bvrowser.
We're creating a file sharing area in our intranet. When a user clicks
on a link they can save the file to their computer. When the file is
done downloading and the 'File Download' dialog closes I want to update
the database to flag that file as checked out. Because we don't want
anyone else to download it until the file has been re-uploaded.
Does anyone know how I can know when the dialog closes? It would also
be good to know if the user clicked Cancel instead of Save.
I am new to this forum, so your help would be most appreciated.
I am trying to create a javascript where, on clicking a button, I will
be able to download the latest log file. But the log filename changes
everyday as it takes the current date as part of the filename. eg.
EMEA_20070806 i.e. EMEA_yyyymmdd
Also, the previous day's log file is stored in the same directory.
How can I create a button where it will download the latest log file
at all times?
