Download leaving web page open
|
Jackson, Adam
Hi,
Our application sends out emails with hyperlinks in them. These hyperlinks open attachments associated with items in the email. The attachment opens fine but some/most of the time a blank web page is left behind when the attachment is closed. Is there a way of closing the web page automatically?
Magic xPa 2.5d
TIA
Adam

Adam,
I had to read your message a couple times to be sure I understood. It sounds like someone is closing the page as opposed to the entire browser that is opening as a result of clicking the hyperlink - and it also sounds like you are having two pages opened based on one click of the url. Or the browser itself is set to open more than one page when the hyperlink is clicked (i.e. some type of home page for a company - but I would not expect it to be blank). To be clear, is a browser being used to open the attachment? Maybe you could share an example of the link to an example being opened. Not sure how Magic would be causing this if the url link is properly formed. Charles -- Charles Coe, CPA, MCSE New Orleans, Louisiana |

Hi,
We do RqHTTPHeader('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="'&Trim(K)&'"'), then RqHTTPHeader('Content-type: '&Trim(J)) and finally File2Req(Trim(E)). K is filename and J is content type from database (although J gets modified for word and excel as the content type in database is not what we need. E is RepStr('\\<servername>\?<foldername>\'&Trim(D),'/','-') where D is attachment name from url (same as K).
The problem is the user clicks on hyper link in email (https://<server address>/magicscripts/mgrqispi.dll?APPNAME=<app name>&prgname=imAttachment&ARGUMENTS=-N<issue ID>,-A<attachment name>") a blank web page is opened and the attachment is opened in associated app to content type (I have “Always Open Links of this type” turned on for most of the common attachment types. I close the attachment in whatever app it opened in but the empty web page is left open.
Most attachments are png or jpeg.
Hope this helps?
Adam
