jquery - downloading thru ajax and iframe? -


i have small piece if code:

$.post('exporttoexcel.php', function(data) {      var iframe = document.createelement("iframe");     iframe.src = ""+data;     iframe.style.display = "none";      document.body.appendchild(iframe); }); 

but nothing happens, i'm trying download file seamless server thru jquery's ajax.

anyone got fix?

if trying direct user file, download should use regular link or use location.href = 'my_url'; send browser there directly.

alternatively, if want 'seamless' way, don't use ajax post. link directly exporttoexcel.php in iframe.

if exporttoexcel.php requires use of post, make iframe visible , when exporttoexcel.php called via get, provide 'download' button same size iframe and, when clicked, submits regular html form same url via post.
