     Have you tried changing the usual "Content-Type: text/html" to
     "Content-Type: text/plain"?

How do I force the client/browser to start downloading or iniate the download/sa
ve as
window when sending it a text file I am creating on the fly?  I do not want the
browser to display the text file and I do not want to create a file on the serve
r
that I must link to and then instruct the user to download.
