Html5 Download For Firefox

Get Firefox, a free web browser backed by Mozilla, a non-profit dedicated to internet health and privacy. Available now on Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and iOS.
HTML 5 may be the latest and greatest technology, but some browsers don’t have native support for the new semantic elements. Let’s momentarily forget about the really sexy functionality, like full control over the element, and just focus on getting the elements rendered.
In my opinion it doesn't make any sense to link it with the CORS Policy, because I don't see which security flaws the hackers could exploit with the HTML5 download attribute. Also, cross origin downloads are working perfectly in Google Chrome.

I tend to get caught up on the JavaScript side of the HTML5 revolution, and can you blame me? HTML5 gives us awesome 'big' stuff like WebSockets, Web Workers, History, Storage and little helpers like the Element classList collection. There are, however, smaller features in HTML5 that we can appreciate; one of those would be the new download attribute. The download attribute allows you to set a separate file download name than the actual link endpoint itself.

The HTML

Place the download attribute on a link..

..and when the user clicks the link, the download attribute appears in the save dialog instead of the garbled mess that was there before. In this case, the file will be downloaded as expenses.pdf. The download attribute also triggers a force download, something that I used to do on the server side with PHP.

This attribute is extremely useful in cases where generated files are in use -- the file name on the server side needs to be incredibly unique, but the download attribute allows the file name to be meaningful to user. The download attribute is one of those enhancements that isn't incredibly sexy but is a practical and easy to add.
