Html Download Xml File Link
HTML has a link element to link to external style sheets. It knows it won't have to download this file. Just as with the link element of HTML, there can be multiple xml-stylesheet PIs and they can have attributes to set the type, medium and title. Here is a larger example. Yes - the link on the website is to an XML file the user does not want to have to right click the XML file and do a save as and open with Excel. They want to be able to click on the XML file link and have it open directly in Excel. Currently, when they click on the XML link, it shows how you state in your screen shot.
Stupid thing and I can't figure it out. I'm viewing some XML files in Chrome (in this case a WSDL and an XSD). I need to save as files. The problem is that the file I get when I do is mangled with a lot of HTML and not actually the raw XML I was looking at.
How do I save/download the actual XML using Chrome?

Simply click the File button (the 3 lines), and click Save Page As.
For example, I went to xml-sitemaps.com/sitemap.xml and clicked Save Page As. It saved as XML to my local machine and loaded as such. Without any HTML.
The fact yours is saving HTML suggests the page you're saving is not an XML page but is an HTML page which just references XML. If that is the case, you'll need to locate the locations of the XML, navigate to them in the browser and then 'Save Page As.'
In later versions of Chrome, 'Save Page As' is now under More tools section in the options menu.
DaveI just figured this out. If you want to save the file as XML, make sure you are looking at the page source (Tools->View source or Control+U).
Jens EratJust learned about the 'download' attribute. Only compatible with newer browser versions though: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_a_download.asp
Html Code For Download Link
Chrome does not allow to execute 'Save As ...' , even from the source when the target resource is in a HTTPS website using a self-signed certicate (or broken chain, invalid date,..). Even if the resource is inside the same HTTPS server where you previously agreed to access.
You have to install the corresponding certificate in the CA store to get rid of the HTTPS warning and also be able to download what you want from 'Save As ...' menu.
By the way, there is no issue for resources that are not rendered inside Chrome : exe, zip,...
You can try this which was posted on salesforce.stackexchange,Use the developer tools and go to the Network tab before you click the Generate button. Click the wsdl.jsp item and copy out of the Response tab. Start highlighting at the first character and then Ctrl+Shift+End.
Right click page. View source. Select all. Paste into your favorite text editor. Save as .xml.
