Rename File on Download

G

googlegroups

I have a standard template file that is available for download
(currently just an anchor tag). I would like to rename the file that
is sent to the client (to include an ID used by the template) so if the
user saves the file rather than opens it, it will have the necessary
info to work properly when it is opened. Is there a means via
javascript to rename the file being downloaded?

Thanks very much!

That is a server-side operation.
