Download attachment

[Todd Freese]

We have a web client that get's it's data from sync gateway. Displaying jogs that are stored as attachments works great.

However, I need to have a download button that actually downloads the attachment to disk. Are there any header that I can set to force a request for an attachment to download?

All my attachments are JPGs.

I believe the HTTP Content-Disposition response header is used to tell a browser to download a resource to disk instead of displaying it. Check the HTTP 1.1 spec.

You could use a proxy like nginx or Apache to add such a header to the appropriate responses.

Worked like a champ setting the Content-Disposition header.

Thanks!
