Force File Open In Word
Posted: Tue Aug 28, 2007 12:36 pm
I am having an issue with linking to Word documents on my site.
I would like to have every users computer open the Word doc in Word when they click on an link to a Word document on my site.
However, some users browsers open the document right up in the browser, some lag and take a real long time to open the document and some do exactly as a like and open right up in Word.
I know that this is a setting in the users browser, however is there anyway to force this behavior from my PHP or JavaScript code?
Any suggestions?
