I can't quite figure out how to do this...but right now I have a script 
that generates a vCard file, which is basically just a text file with a 
.vcf extension.  I've unfortunately found that trying to link to this 
generated file makes the lines of text from the file appear in the 
browser rather than prompt for a download location or whatever (open 
with, save as...etc).  I think it is something to do with the encoding, 
but I have no clue how to get around this.  To give you an example of 
what I'm talking about, point your browser to 
http://britney.spartansummit.com/vcards/test.vcf and see what 
happens...I would rather this link prompt for download or open with, 
but I dunno how to do it server side. Thanks
