Does anyone know how this is done? :

It must be something server-side, any code that shows this?

they're just sending the same file with different mime types which may
or may not cause different behavior on the users computer.

example in a htaccess file:

AddType application/octet-stream .doc

the above will most likely (but not necessarily) cause a download dialog
to appear. you can also use scripting to specify mimes.

it is foolish to send anything other than the correct mime for the file.

Thanks a lot Brucie,
The master explained well :)
