[Dillo-dev] Setting the filename of a PDF response

[August Karlstrom]

I'm working on a web page with a form which generates a PDF document in
memory and returns it to the user. In the response header I have set

Content-Type: application/pdf
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="foo.pdf"

However, Dillo seems to ignore the specified filename and instead uses
the URL base name plus query string as the default filename in the
download dialog window. Any suggestions?

Currently, there's no parsing for this HTTP directive in dillo.

If you're a C programmer it shouldn't be hard to make a patch for it.
(hints: in cache.c, the http header is stored in CacheEntry_t->Header.
there's also a Cache_parse_field() function)

HTH.
