With IE4 or higher you can use
  document.execCommand('SaveAs')
If you want to give a different default name in the SaveAs dialog box, 
you can use
  document.execCommand('SaveAs',null,'filename.html')
I would like to add a bit of kool knowledge to this information.  That 
is if you use the following command.  The default will be "Text File 
(*.txt)" in the "Save as Type" field.
  document.execCommand('SaveAs','1','filename.txt .txt')
