What is the best way to achieve the below in latest latest browsers (with html5 support). I mainly target Google Chrome. In my application, data is manipulated through javascript and needs to write output to the file system with a browser prompt (save as dialog). I am not sure about the security restrictions to write to file system, but I am not planning anonymous write (but user is prompted, and selects the location). I see saveAs not natively supported yet. With my research, I see few options. https://github.com/eligrey/FileSaver.js a.download ( http://html5-demos.appspot.com/static/a.download.html ) web filesystem object URLs FileServer falls back to 2,3,4 if no native support and I may use it. But, I don't find a way to open a Save As dialog. It just save a file in default location (downloads folder in mac). Which option would you use to get a good support in latest browsers? How can get open the Save As dialog and let the user name the file. Thanks.
