I created some elaborate tests to prove you wrong (well, elaborate for
someone who can barely scratch out Hello world) and ended up proving you
right instead. If the content type header is one that IE recognizes, it
gets handled correctly. Including text/plain, which gets opened in the
browser rather than downloaded, even if I give it a .bin extension.
Strangely enough, content type application/octec-stream resorts to
identification from the file name. so an .html file will get opened in
IE, whereas firefox will give you the file download dialogue, (with the
option to open in the browser).
This didn't work nearly so well last time I tested it with IE 4, but my
bad for spreading such outdated info.
