To override the default behavior for a browser, use the
Content-Disposition header to specify
the override behavior and assign this header to an object. For
example, this header might specify that the browser use a
download program to save this file rather than show the file,
which is the default.
Example 1.10. Override browser default behavior request: HTTP
This example assigns an attachment type to the
Content-Disposition header. This
attachment type indicates that the file is to be
downloaded as goodbye.txt:
# curl -i $publicURL/marktwain/goodbye -X POST -H "X-Auth-Token: $token" -H "Content-Length: 14" -H "Content-Type: application/octet-stream" -H "Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=goodbye.txt"
