I had no idea that inline wasn't in the RFC. To be perfectly honest, I haven't even read it. I got the full header by ripping it off a bare telnet GET request and examining the response. I saw a CGI app that did what I wanted (I *think* its the download app at e.themes.org) and tried to mime what it was doing.

One of those things that happen outta mere curiosity...

    Oh! And for Win machines with Internet Exploder, it won't even ask you if it knows the file type... Even with the content-type being Octet/Stream it'll open .txt, .htm, .gif on the screen instead of popping-up the 'Save As' dialogue (which was what I wanted it to do in the 1st place, assuming that it IS a download app, and not a browse app.)
