Hi Andreas,

If I understood you correct, you want that the vcard should be downloaded.
This is what I think is the easiest way:

1) Create a vard.vcf.html page (with this wired extension) and place it in
pages/admin under your catalog page.
2) Add this line to the top of that file: [tag op=header
interpolate=1]Content-Type: text/plain[/tag]
3) create your vcard-layout there
4) make your link to that page mentioned in 1)

My link looks like this:

[set mv_add_dot_html]0[/set]
 [page test/vcard.vcf]Get this vcard[/page]
[set mv_add_dot_html]1[/set]



That's it. You can try it yourself at
