I have written this code to export data to a text file and asks user
to save generated file. It works with Firefox perfectly, but IE shows
content of file instead of prompting the download window.
How can I force IE to show the download dialog?

<?php
Header("Content-disposition: attachement; filename=data.txt");
Header("Content-type: text/plain");
echo $some_data;
?>

We usually do something like this. Although I am not sure about text files.

header("Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename=\"".urldecode(basename($file))."\";");
header("Content-Type: application/force-download");
