i think you cannot force a save as file dialog in browser.

for forceing the download of a txt file i do the following:

header('Pragma: anytextexeptno-cache', true);
header("Pragma: public");
header("Expires: 0");
header("Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
header("Cache-Control: private", false);
header("Content-Type: text/plain");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"example.txt\"");
echo $output;

hope that helps.

How to save file and click ok from download dialog box using RSelenium?

Add the following to your existing setup, some of which you may already have, just shown here to illustrate, basically supressing the download popup, as well never asking to save for that mime type (bz2)

require(RSelenium)
dirdownload <- "/path_to/my_output_dir"
fprof <- makeFirefoxProfile(list(browser.download.dir = dirdownload,
                                 browser.download.folderList = 2L,
                                 browser.download.manager.showWhenStarting = FALSE,
                                 browser.helperApps.neverAsk.saveToDisk = "application/x-bzip2"))
RSelenium::startServer()
remDr <- remoteDriver(extraCapabilities = fprof)
