prompt "Save as" dialog for image

Hi there
I'm trying to force save as dialogue using this code in download.asp..but
when it runs it prompts for download.asp to save or open.

code snippet (from aspfaq.com)

Response.ContentType = "application/x-unknown" ' arbitrary
fn = "wallpaper_1_1.jpg"
Response.write "<br>" & Server.MapPath("wallpaper") & "<br>"
FPath = Server.MapPath("wallpaper") & fn
Response.AddHeader "Content-Disposition","attachment; filename=" & fn

Set adoStream = CreateObject("ADODB.Stream")
adoStream.Open()
adoStream.Type = 1
adoStream.LoadFromFile(FPath)
Response.BinaryWrite adoStream.Read()
adoStream.Close
Set adoStream = Nothing


I want this page to prompt save image option, not page itself.

Any help would be appreciated!!!

Are you accessing the page via http?  Like, you're going to
http://localhost/download.asp as opposed to C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\download.asp?

Do you have an On Error Resume Next?  Well, regardless, a couple of changes
will be necessary.

When you Response.write FPath, did you notice that there was no \ between
the directory name and the filename?  You'll need that.  Also, make sure you
do not leave the Response.Write code in there when you get this working.
Try this code:

Response.ContentType = "application/x-unknown" ' arbitrary
fn = "wallpaper_1_1.jpg"
'Response.write "<br>" & Server.MapPath("wallpaper") & "<br>"
FPath = Server.MapPath("wallpaper") &  "\" & fn
Response.AddHeader "Content-Disposition","attachment; filename=" & fn

Set adoStream = CreateObject("ADODB.Stream")
adoStream.Open()
adoStream.Type = 1
adoStream.LoadFromFile(FPath)
Response.BinaryWrite adoStream.Read()
adoStream.Close
Set adoStream = Nothing

Do you have evidence that suggests that it doesn't?
