So I implemented this the other day and got excited as it worked...sort of. My code is very similar to the link that you suggested. This is the script that I would call from within an <img src=...imagePiper.php?i=blahblah>:
if(isset($i)) { //codeImageURL decodes $i into an image path that we can work with $link=codeImageURL($i); if($link!="" && (isAdmin() || !isThisFileBlocked($link))) { header("Cache-control: private"); header("Content-type: image/jpg"); header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=".$link); $fp = fopen($link, 'r'); fpassthru($fp); fclose($fp); } else echo "Error: Couldn't decode image URL<br>\n"; } This code seems to work in *some* browsers, but not all. That is, in some browsers, images will display just fine. In other browsers (i.e. Some flavors of IE on the PC) I just get red x's. I cannot identify any particular commonality among them and I was wondering if you have any suggestions to make this work? Thanks in advance!
