function saver(url, winMode) {
if ('download' in anchor) { //html5 A[download]
anchor.href = url;
anchor.setAttribute("download", fileName); //THIS LINE
anchor.className = "download-js-link";
anchor.innerHTML = "downloading...";
anchor.style.display = "none";
document.body.appendChild(anchor);
setTimeout(function () {
anchor.click();
document.body.removeChild(anchor);
if (winMode === true) {setTimeout(function () { self.URL.revokeObjectURL(anchor.href);}, 250);}
}, 66);
return true;
}

I have the same problem. Can you help?

This is probably a result of the Content-Disposition header sent by the href's URL response. You can (if using CORS/SO) fatch the response to a blob, the URL.createObjectURL(theBlob) to get a url w/o http behavior (specifically UA downloading).

I don't see how this relates to download.js though, so closing.
