Hi,
I built a web page with href to few binary files. I would let the users download such files with the download dialog of their 
browser.
Unfortunately the browser try always to open and display the file in text. In particular PDF files are opened with the PDF Reader plug-in (and this could make sense) but also other formats (msm, xls...) are  
displayed as text streams.
Is there a simple work-around to this behavior?  

Thank you and regards,

Diego
