Hi,
Anybody knows the solution to the following:
I am trying to force the download of a file called
dadada.txt.
I have a file named downloadFile.php
It is invoked like this:
<a
href="downloadFile.php?daFile="path/dadada.txt">dadada.txt</a>
However within the downloadFile.php the $daFile
argument is empty. This is the file:
<?
session_start();
if($_SESSION['isValidSession'] == 'Y'){
$daFile = $_GET['daFile'];
$size=filesize($daFile);
if($daFile != ""){
//header("Cache-control: private");
header("Content-Type:
texapplication/octet-stream\n");
header("Content-Length:" . $size ."\n");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename=\"$daFile\"\n");
// header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");
}
require("footer.php");
}else{
printf("<br> You are not autherized to view this
page");
}
?>
A download happens but the downloaded file name is
"downloadFile" and not "dadada.txt"
Why would you think this is happening?
Cheers.
