Does anyone have any idea how one would go about doing this, or if it is possible? Controlling a window location with JS is simple enough, but all my attempts at controlling the location of a file-download window have failed and I have found no information about this at all.
I'm building an application for users with double-wide monitors in which downloading files is a very common task, and of course having the file-download window pop-up in the center of the window is not at all ideal(its cut in half on two screens), and I really, really want to solve this problem.
Please if anyone has any ideas at all please let me know.. Even any browser-specific hacks to make this work would be invaluable at this point.
Peace

A possible workaround solution could be to open a small popup window and position it in a certain place which *might* have some influence on where the download window appears. For example it's possible that the download dialog might appear on the same monitor that the popup appeared. If that doesn't work then feyd is right and your out of luck unless you develop your own downloader.
