I m trying to download a large blob from a web worker.

With Firefox and Chrome it's quite simple:

url = URL.createObjectURL(oMyBlob);
//Then i return the url to the main thread and go to it

But according to this thread IE doesn't allow that, and we must use this:

navigator.msSaveBlob(blob, defaultName);

But navigator seems to not have access to msSaveBlob within a webworker...

What's the best way then to download a Blob (~100MB) within an IE11 worker?

  • Do you have a solution for this ? By web worker do you mean an ASP application hosted in IIS ? – Kira Jun 17 '15 at 04:15
