Change name of download in javascript
html, javascript
Solution
No, you cannot change this from the client side (HTML or javascript). You need to change it from the server. One way is to use a server side script which will set the Content-Disposition HTTP response header:
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=somecustomname.txt
Problem
If a user clicks on a downloadable link such as ``` <a href="downloadable.txt">Download</a> ``` Is there a client-side (html or javascript) way to change the name of the file before the 'Save As' dialog?
