Saving an image from the browserI am using ASP.NET, VB.NET, and GDI+ to dynamically create images for
webpages. When I right-click on the dynamically created image to try to save it to my hard drive, which I send as ImageFormat.Gif, my browser (Internet Explorer 6.0) wants me to save it as a *.bmp file. The VB.NET line of code that I use to send the image to the browser is: textbitmap.Save(Response.OutputStream, ImageFormat.Gif) Why is my browser forcing me to save an image (supposedly) sent as a gif as a bmp? Is there some other line of code I need to add in order for IE6 to recognize it as a *.gif file, or is this just a bug in IE6? (Yes, I know that I can use the Save() method to save it as a file on my computer, but I want the browser to treat the dynamically generated images the same as other images, including the ability to download them in the intended format) "Nathan Sokalski" <njsokal***@hotmail.com> schreef in bericht A bug in IE6.

Save() method: Response.ContentType="image/gif" I also have the following attribute in my @Page directive: ContentType="image/gif" But neither on seemed to make any difference.
