a better solution is to force the download using the header. i don't have
the *exact* code handy, but it's been posted here many times and FigLeaf
(www.figleaf.com) has a tutorial on it on their site.

Vance, what web server are you using? Some will enable a quasi-ftp type
facility if the directory(s) have no Index/Default page in them.

Subject: Force File Download
I am trying to offer a link on a website, for ALL kinds of file types. I
want to force file download even for files that are an understood MIME type,
i.e. GIF, JPG, DOC, XLS, etc. I do not want this to open in the browser.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks,
Vance Duke
