Hi! i'm was checking, readfile(); and fpassthru();
With easy examples, i can use it for show a pic in the screen and download a file, from outside of documentRoot. It works fine. The problem that i have now, is, i need can work with it, inside of other documents, but i'm getting all time error by the headers. ( already sendt ... ) Anyone knows how to use it for can call the files and work together with other page ¿?
