hi, Here is my code. <% require ''rubygems'' require ''zip/zipfilesystem'' content = "" content += "[InternetShortcut]\n" content += "URL=http://www.mysite.com/" content += "\nIconFile=http://www.mysite.com/favicon.ico\n" File.delete("#{RAILS_ROOT}/public/ins_test/InsShortcut.zip") if File.exist?("#{RAILS_ROOT}/public/ins_test/InsShortcut.zip") Zip::ZipFile.open("#{RAILS_ROOT}/public/ins_test/InsShortcut.zip", Zip::ZipFile::CREATE){ |zipfile| zipfile.file.open("MySite.url", ''w'') { |f| f.puts "#{content}" } } File.chmod(0777, "#{RAILS_ROOT}/public/ins_test/InsShortcut.zip") %> <a href="/ins_test/InsShortcut.zip">download the shortcut icon (zipped)</a> local - OS(ubuntu 8.04) When I download the zipped file in both IE & firefox it is working properly. Server - OS(red hat 5.2) In firefox zipped file is downloading properly but not in IE. I am not able to understand the situation, is it because of OS or my code. Advance Thanks.
