Hi Everyone,
I've setup a filedownload which works but i'm having an issue, i've
left out but when it downloads it, while it has the correct file it
doesn't have a file extension associated with it, I need the .7z
extension associated with the filename, can anyone see why that would
do this
I think that your problem in this line:
header(Content-Disposition: filename=$file . %20);
I don't know what that %20 is for and you should quote the filename,
that line should be something like this:
header(Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\$file\);
Considering that $filename
That is for IE and its silly FileName[N] rather than FileName
here a good old function to download:

Greetings,
I need to create a script to let registered users to download files from
a non-public folder.
The files name, type, and size are stored in a MySQL Database. The user
need to click on a link, and a PHP script should handle the download of
the file.
Here is how I organized it:
Hi Stefano,
You can use this code instead to read in the file and output it to the
browser, as it is binary safe. I've used it for the same reason you
require, and it works fine with video clips.
$fp = fopen($path, rb);
while(!feof($fp))
{
print(fread($fp, 1024));
flush($fp);
}
();
The rb in the fopen function instructs PHP to open the file for
reading in a binary safe manner.
Hope this helps.
