Are you sure Safari isn't automatically *unzipping* the file for you?
http://www.giantrobot.co.nz/tmp/getzip.phps < your code
http://www.giantrobot.co.nz/tmp/getzip.php < works
I tested this out, but my test zip contained only getfile.php - so I
didn't spot that it was an auto-/unzip/ until I changed the contents of
the zipfile to getfile.phps ... and Safari started saving that to disk
instead.
Does that fix it for you?
