Download vs View is controled by content-disposition header. Just add header below and you will get Save File dialog box.
content-disposition: attachment; filename=test.pdf

What's the header for download and view respectively? – user198729 Dec 25 '09 at 13:38

By default you will get view. If you will add header with name "content-disposition" and value "attachment; filename=test.pdf" you will get download. – Mike Chaliy Dec 25 '09 at 23:30

What about the `content-type`? – user198729 Dec 26 '09 at 10:00

`content-type` is about MIME type of the resource, for example JPEG images are `image\jpeg`. More on the topic - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_media_type – Mike Chaliy Dec 26 '09 at 16:17
