Hi there,

 

I have simple question, how to prevent GC to open pdf file in browser after uploading. Instead of that I want the file is only downloading.

 

 

Your answer is appreciated.

 

Rgds,

Well you can do the same by altering the header of the file.

If you set the header of the file being downloaded to application/octate - it will force the file to be popped up for downloaded rather then open in the browser directly.

 

Happy GCing :)
