Absolutely lost with URI/Net/HTTP

[Guest]

is it possible to download a file with a PHP hidden URL?

when the link is clicked on in firefox, it will prompt the user to
either open or save, for example...

http://www.esnips.com/nsdoc/b2a4a221-2590-486f-a314-469a4721e1ed/?id=1183359840917

how can i download this file using ruby?

or if that isn't possible, to tell firefox to open that url?

thanks!
