That's what I suspected.
So, given that I'd like two things to happen (the web page to refresh /and/
a file to download) on one HTTP request (ideally, a POST), what sort of
processing do I need to do in PHP? Or, /can/ I do this at all? Obviously,
some web pages /do/ this sort of thing, so it must be possible, but /how/
they do it is the question I can't answer.
