Creating a downloading file from text |
Sun, Jan 27 2019 11:02 AM | Permanent Link |
Stephen Kenny | In response to a button press, how to I cause a load of text - created in real time - to be downloaded to the user's desktop as a file.
I could do it by moving the code into a webservice and calling from a link, but I'd rather do it this way. I feel I'm missing something pretty obvious, as it's a simple problem in server side languages. Stephen |

ooptimum | Try to download from a Data-URL like <a href="data:...." target="_blank">.

<< I feel I'm missing something pretty obvious, as it's a simple problem in server side languages. >> It's a simple problem to solve server-side because server-side languages are typically not running in a highly-secured sandbox that doesn't have direct access to the local file system. In general, I would always recommend generating this type of thing from the server. It avoids a lot of pain compared to navigating the differing ways in which dynamically-created DOM elements can behave in the various browsers. Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |
