The `filename` is optional and if no file name is desired, but you +want to specify `options`, set `filename` to `undefined`. + +```js +res.setHeader('Content-Disposition', contentDisposition('∫ maths.pdf')) +``` + +**note** HTTP headers are of the ISO-8859-1 character set. If you are writing this +header through a means different from `setHeader` in Node.js, you'll want to specify +the `'binary'` encoding in Node.js. + +#### Options + +`contentDisposition` accepts these properties in the options object. + +##### fallback + +If the `filename` option is outside ISO-8859-1, then the file name is actually +stored in a supplemental field for clients that support Unicode file names and +a ISO-8859-1 version of the file name is automatically generated. + +This specifies the ISO-8859-1 file name to override the automatic generation or +disables the generation all together, defaults to `true`. + + - A string will specify the ISO-8859-1 file name to use in place of automatic + generation. + - `false` will disable including a ISO-8859-1 file name and only include the + Unicode version (unless the file name is already ISO-8859-1). + - `true` will enable automatic generation if the file name is outside ISO-8859-1. + +If the `filename` option is ISO-8859-1 and this option is specified and has a +different value, then the `filename` option is encoded in the extended field +and this set as the fallback field, even though they are both ISO-8859-1. + +##### type + +Specifies the disposition type, defaults to `"attachment"`. This can also be +`"inline"`, or any other value (all values except inline are treated like +`attachment`, but can convey additional information if both parties agree to +it).

This automatically handles extended +("Unicode") parameters by decoding them and providing them under the standard +parameter name. This will return an object with the following properties (examples +are shown for the string `'attachment; filename="EURO rates.txt"; filename*=UTF-8\'\'%e2%82%ac%20rates.txt'`): + + - `type`: The disposition type (always lower case). Example: `'attachment'` + + - `parameters`: An object of the parameters in the disposition (name of parameter + always lower case and extended versions replace non-extended versions).
