Re: How to download a file from the server (content disposition CGI->header( qw{ -type mime/type -attachment filename } ) )

computers/HTTP doesn't like typos

$ perl -MCGI -le " print CGI->header( qw{ -type mime/type -attachment 
+filename } ) "
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="filename"
Content-Type: mime/type
[download]
