Red face onde esta a função ?
asp.net mas esta utilizando o VB6 !!!!

onde esta a função FileDownloadCtrl.downloadFile

se não colocar download() após a função quem vai chama-la ?

where is that the function FileDownloadCtrl.downloadFile of JavaScript ? if not call the function before declare, don't work. You say ASP.NET, but, use Java and VB6, only 8 lines in ASP.NET. How many peoples using JAVA + VB6 + ASP.NET ? what don't files for download ?

> where is that the function FileDownloadCtrl.downloadFile of JavaScript

The function downloadFile is a part of the ActiveX control FileDownloadCtrl which is created in VB... You create/compile the code for the ActiveX yourself (that's the VB code)

The ASP portion is for the Server which sends the file.

Hi,
I created the activex control and the web project, but when I run the application the response is sent to the browser (download.aspx) and not to the client's machine: how do I tell the application to use the control? Also, where is the javascript function "download()" being called in the htm file and how is this htm file used? And where will the file be saved in the client's machine? Lots of question, TIA,
Vina

Ok, I got it, it works fine for me now, thanks a lot for the information. Maybe I would just suggest some extra explanation for beginners on how to use the control from the web page (the data flow). Thanks again,

Vina

HTTP File download without user interaction using .NET
I am working in a similar module. The only difference is that it is not necessary that our client will have VB6 installed on his machine. How then can i download the files ?
Thanks in advance,
Toral

You seem to have missed the second half of the article.

download.aspx is the script that sends the file.
You need to make an ActiveX control to access the script.
you need to make an HTML file to use the activeX control.


From the article
Quote:
9. The wizard would generate a CAB file and a HTM file. Copy the two files to your webserver's virtual directory and write a small javascript function in the HTM file which would call the control's downloadFile method. Eg

Code:
<script language=javascript>
function download()
{
 var b,errno,errdesc,errsrc;
FileDownloadCtrl.downloadFile("http://localhost/Mydownload/download.aspx", "c:\\downloads\\hi.doc",errno);
}
</script>
