I created a component for this - based on code I found in Textpattern
CMS. Basically you pass your data (string) to the component, it
creates a temporary file in the cache and feeds the contents to the
user as a stream. Maybe it works for you:
<code><pre>
function download($data = null, $filename = 'download', $extension =
'tab') {
if (!$data) return;
$path = 'persistent' . DS . $filename . '.' . $extension;
cache($path, $data);
$fullpath = CACHE . $path;
if (!is_file($fullpath)) {
debug("Error Download: unable to create cache at $fullpath");
die;
}
$filesize = filesize($fullpath);
$sent = 0;
header('Content-Description: File Download');
header('Content-Type: application/octet-stream');
header('Content-Length: ' . $filesize);
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="' .
basename($path) . '"');
@ini_set("zlib.output_compression", "Off");
@set_time_limit(0);
@ignore_user_abort(true);
if ($file = fopen($fullpath, 'rb')) {
while(!feof($file) && (connection_status() == 0)) {
echo fread($file, 1024 * 64);
$sent += (1024 * 64);
flush();
}
fclose($file);
}
die;
}
</pre></code>
