opening files in Netcape 7.2?

[Eych]

if I have Response.Redirect("file:///C:/Temp/test.txt") in code, in the
Netscape window I get "Object moved to here", where 'here' is
hyperlinked to "file:///C:/Temp/test.txt". I can drag the link and
open it in a new tab, but how can I get it to open initially?

thanks.

Response.Redirect emits an http oject moved code to the browser. Netscape
often informs users that the file is actually a redirect to a new location.
One of the ways you can get around this sometimes is to set the
response.buffer = true, then clear the buffer before you send the redirect.
It doesn't always do the trick, but it often does help.

Hope this helps,
