 I'm searching for the most 'elegant' way to do this:
 
 I pop up a window with a picture in it.  The picture is a Thumbnail for
 the full-size digital image.  The fullsize digital image is too big to
 fit on a typical user's screen.
 
 What I would like is to prevent the browser (any browser, I know I have
 to support IE, FireFox, and Mac-Safari at a minimum) from opening this
 jpeg image in a new window, and instead ask the user if s/he wants to
 save the file.... Doable?  I guess what I am trying to do is turn off
 the automatic mime-type handling for this one operation.....
 
 Failing that,  I am looking for the most elegant way of handling this.
 I really don't want users to get a window that is 2 or 3 times their
 screen size, just to save the file.....
 
 Any thoughts?
