I had a similar issue with mod_python some time back where I had two requirements: -a txt file had to be generated -a dynamically generated title for the document (to make saving the document more organized) I created a handler for handling any URIs ending with '.txt' as opposed to .py or .psp to write out the request. Recall that mod_python doesn't care as much about the file name as it does for the suffix of the file. My way is pretty hacky-i'd be curious to see what the pyGurus have to suggest.

The contents of this file is exactly how I wanted it to be. So far so good. I have this code in example.py: --------- def index(req): req.content_type='text/file' req.sendfile('PATH_TO_FILE/name.txt') --------- When the file is sent to the user, the file's default name is the URI (ie 'example'), and I'd like to specify the filename, for example, 'name.txt' instead of 'example.' Any ideas? Thanks, Calvin _______________________________________________ Mod_python mailing list Mod_python at modpython.org http://mailman.modpython.org/mailman/listinfo/mod_python David Y.
