Hello,

Make sure in your server side code you have following lines to force the file open/save as dialog.

C#

//Add the file name and attachment, to force the open/save dialog to show
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename="+ FileName.Name);

//Add the file size into the response header
Response.AddHeader("Content-Length", (FileName.Length - startBytes).ToString());

Also suggest you to go through this article here on CodeProject.

Hi,

you can do one thing.(so that you don't have to face the browser problem.)

When you get the result (eg: .zip file) you can load Popup Window like this.

step 1: Create Div based section in your web page

C#

<div id="dialog" style="display:none">
<![CDATA[<%--  Add File Name with download link -- %>]]>
</div>

Step 2: Write JavaScript to show dialog in popup

C#

function ShowDialog(isValidAddress) {
    $("#dialog").fadeIn(300);
}
function HideDialog() {
    $("#dialog").fadeOut(300);
}

step 3: Call javascript function showDialog from Code behind.

RegisterStarupScript();

Hello,

First, window.location.href is not a function.
Use this :

window.location.href = result;
