File Download

[nileshnaik]

Hi,
I need to download ".bat" file on click of an image.
The code is :
<script>
function downloadBatchFile() {
window.open('http://myserver/download.bat');
}
</script>
.....
<img src="FileDownload.gif" onclick="downloadBatchFile();"/>

With this code, the file content are displayed in the new window. No download/save window is shown.
I tried doing the same with the help of <a href ..> tag. but the output is same.
Can any one help me on that.

(If I replace .bat file with .zip file it shows me the Save window, and the zip file can be downloaded);

Thanks,
Nilesh

I think you are on the wrong track here. Surely no one in their right mind is going to download a .bat file.
