    Download not working on IPad

    I've got a jQuery based ASP.Net app that allows download of documents.

    The download is not working on an IPad.

    How would I go about debugging something like this?

    I think that we had an issue with a file download on iOS recently but it was not something that I worked on specifically. I'll see if I can find out what the problem was and what the solution was and you can see if the same thing might apply in your case.

    Re: Download not working on IPad

    The download is not working on an IPad.
    IPad's are a bit of a pain in that IOS doesn't expose it file structure so you cant just download a file to an IPad or IPhone from Safari apart from Image files.

    I think you maybe able to stream a file across in bytes and re-create the document from bytes on the client, i haven't tested that myself but it might be worth looking into.

    I had forgotten all about this thread. My apologies for that. I'm in the office tomorrow with the guy who did the work so I'll see what I can find out.

    Sorry, I'm not sure if I could help you with this one, however, some of my guys probably had experience with iPad, I'll get back to you after New Year, probably...
