Hi
I'm new to ASP/Web programming so any help would be appreciated...
Situation: On my web page I would like to present a link {or button} that would allow the user to download a large file. When the user clicks to start the download I would like to display the "Save As" dialog, allow the user to name a place to save the file, and then show the download progress bar while the file downloads
Question:
How do I make a windows "Save As" dialog appear when the user clicks on a link {or button} to download a large file? I've been looking at source for several web pages that do this and I think they use J-Script - does this make sense? How do I share data between the web page and the "Save As" dialog so that I can seed the dialog with a default filename and location
As I said I'm new to ASP.NET programming so I don't know where to start; any direction would be useful..
