HugePinball Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 Over at the BGS Forums, they just added a feature in the Messenger that lets you print or download a conversation. Here's the new button that appears when viewing a conversation: http://stashbox.org/826628/DownloadConversation.png It would be great if we could get that here as well. Then I could stop working on my Greasemonkey script to do the same thing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HugePinball Posted March 19, 2010 Author Share Posted March 19, 2010 I just noticed we have this here now too :biggrin: Thanks Dark0ne! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LHammonds Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 The "Download Word" option works for me but the "Download HTML" does not. Our firewall blocks unknown content types and this utility is sending an incorrect header. WatchGuard firewall: Response denied from http://IPAddress:80/index.php: Unsafe content type "unknown/unknown"The content type should be set to "text/html" LHammonds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HugePinball Posted March 22, 2010 Author Share Posted March 22, 2010 It looks like both the Doctype and content type are correct. Here is the header in the html file I get from this feature: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xml:lang="en" lang="en" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" /> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all" href="http://thenexusforums.com/public/style_css/css_5/ipb_print.css" /> <title>The Nexus Forums</title> </head> It might be a problem at your workplace/organization end. BTW - I'm using Firefox, if that would explain any difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LHammonds Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 It looks like both the Doctype and content type are correct. Here is the header in the html file I get from this feature:No, the content type that the hardware firewall looks at is the actual initiation of the data stream. Example: I can send text (even the exact same HTML file in your example) to your browser but tell it to initiate the data stream as MS-Word and if your computer has MS Office on it, the download will open straight in MS Word. The key to the following examples is the server-side code "Response.ContentType" VB Script Example:<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT"%> <% '** Source: http://www.assonetriver.com/snippets/mime_types_msword_code.asp '** '** Tells the browser to open table using MS-Word ** Response.ContentType = "application/msword" %> <html> <head> <title>Excel MIME Type Example</title> </head> <body> Sample of MIME Type - MS-Word Server Behavior <br><b>Response.ContentType = "application/msword"</b><br> <br> <table border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="1"> <tr bgcolor="#999999"> <td><b>Remote Address</b></td> <td><b>HTTP User Agent</b></td> <td><b>Date</b></td> <td><b>Server Software</b></td> </tr> <tr> <td> <% =Request.ServerVariables("REMOTE_ADDR") %> </td> <td> <% =Request.ServerVariables("HTTP_USER_AGENT") %> </td> <td> <% = Date() %> </td> <td> <% =Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_SOFTWARE") %> </td> </tr> </table> </body> </html> Here is another example of the content type being setup as comma-delimited which Excel will open if you have it installed: <%@ Language=VBScript %> <% ' GenerateXLS Version 1.1 by Brian Kirsten ' GenerateXLS is an ASP script that generates a comma delimited (CSV) file ' (that you can then open in Excel or some similar spreadsheet software) ' from a database. It is distributed under the GNU Public License. DIM sTable DIM sDSN DIM sFields sDSN = "<DSN>" 'Name of your DSN sFields = "<FIELDS>" 'List of fields comma delimited sTable = "<TABLE_NAME>" 'Name of your table or View Set DB = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") Set RS = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset") DB.Open sDSN RS.Open "select "& sFields &" from "& sTable,DB Response.ContentType = "application/csv" Response.AddHeader "Content-Disposition", "filename=mydata.csv;" ' lets print the fields on top for i = 0 to RS.Fields.Count - 1 if i = (RS.Fields.Count - 1) then Response.Write lcase(RS.Fields(i).Name) else Response.Write lcase(RS.Fields(i).Name) & "," end if next Response.write vbNewLine Response.write vbNewLine while not RS.EOF for u=0 to RS.Fields.Count - 1 if u = (RS.Fields.Count - 1) then Response.Write RS.Fields(u).Value else Response.Write RS.Fields(u).Value & "," end if next response.write vbNewLine rs.MoveNext wend Response.write vbNewLine Response.write vbNewLine Set RS = Nothing Set DB = Nothing %> But regardless, this issue doesn't even come close to falling within the 80/20 rule and I have asked Dark0ne to ignore this particular issue.
