Asp.Net Save File on client machine

Recently I had a task to save file on client machine. We usually save file on server and in ASP.NET the more familiar task to save on client side was to export gridview results to excel file. This time the task was to save an image on client machine. Following is the code that I followed.

 

<pre name="code" class="html">

byte[] fileBytes = File.ReadAllBytes("D:\\Projects\\TestClientDownload\\images\\banner_ad_1.jpg");

       Response.ClearContent();
       Response.ClearHeaders();
       Response.ContentType = "text/plain";
       Response.AppendHeader("content-disposition", "attachment; filename=" + "banner_ad_1.jpg");
       Response.AppendHeader("content-length", fileBytes.Length.ToString());
       Response.BinaryWrite(fileBytes);
       Response.Flush();
       Response.End();

</pre>

But I found this very simple approach for working on this issue.                 There are modifications needed at 2 places in the code. One is in the HTML body / ASPX page and other is in CSS file. Suppose there is DIV in your mark up and you want to apply different CSS class attributes if browse is IE6 / IE7/ IE8. Then just add a container div with id IE7 to this div. It can be added as this on ASPX page (Note- you can add this in Master page / specific page if you are not using Master Pages): - <!--[if IE 7]><div id="ie7"><![endif]-->       <div class=”category”> This is div of interest where ie7 specific rendering should be done.       </div>   <...
