The URL is like: www.Server.net/script.php?r=XX

The Server generate a GPX File for Download.

Whith this Code a can Download the File, unfortunately i cant get the File Name from the Server.

B4X:
Dim h_dl_gpx As HttpJob
Dim url As String = "https://www.Server.net/script.php?r=XX"

h_dl_gpx.Initialize("TestGPX",Me)
h_dl_gpx.Download(url)

Wait For (h_dl_gpx) JobDone(h_dl_gpx As HttpJob)

How can i get the Filename or save the File under a defined File Name??

You can not get the filename this way. You need to have another phpscript which provides the filename.

To save the result to any place you need to use the outputstream like for any other download. Search the forum; there are hundrets of similar questions.

in the Browser the "save as" Window is open

It is not required. OkHttpUtils2 v2.70 allows you to access the response object with Job.Response.
thanks Erel, i see, i use the HttpUtils2 version 2.01 Class Modul, time for Update and Check.

At the moment i use a (little bit more) code and save the File under a defined file name.
