Re: [PHP] Discarded extension on file download
Hi,
I recently had this problem and, after hours of hair pulling, found that it
seems to work best if you send
the words Content-Type and Content-Disposition in **lower case**. Not sure
why it has to be like that but it was the only way I found.
HTH,
Danny.

[PHP] Discarded extension on file download
Hi
I am trying to offer downloading files from a web server, using PHP.
The files are gzipped text and have all .txt.gz extensions. Now while on
Windows systems both IE and Netscape offers to download it under the
full name (althought IE adds [some_number] to the base of the file
name), under Unix or Linux systems (tested with netscape 4.7) the '.gz'
part is discarded from the file name and the file is saved with .txt
only. Downloaded file is still gzipped.
The part of script serving the files is as follows:
header("Content-type: application/octet-stream");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$my_filename");
echo($file_body);
What am-I doing wrong? Thanks in advance
Tom
