Downloading file from DataURL in JavaScript

Answer 1

Try this:

data:application/msword;fileName=test.doc;base64,0M8R4KGxGuEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAPgADAP7/CQAGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACAAAANQAAAAAAAAAAEAAANwAAAAIAAAD+////AAAAADQAAABsAA/

But this is just a guess from googling around and might be browser-dependent. The real answer to this is, you can't - See http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2397 for reference, there's nothing in the specification to support a filename.
