No matter what you do you cant guarantee that the pop-up box, it all
depends on how the client's browswer software wants to do with that
paticular mime-type.
have you tried sending out something like just to see something unknown
forces it to open:
header("Content-Type: application/makeupyourown");

Having two Content-Type: headers is probably confusing the poor Macs. You
don't want the first one anyway so remove it.

[PHP] popping up download dialog box
Hi every body !
I am writing a script which pops up download dialog box on click of a Link.
Headers i m sending out for downloading jpegs are:
header("Cache-control: private");
header("Content-Type: image/jpeg");
header("Content-Type: application/octet-stream");
header("Content-Length: $size");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$fname");
header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");
readfile($fname);
All these work well in MSIE 5.0+ and Netscape 4.7+ . But on Mac I.E its not popping up
the dialog box rather it opens up the jpg file in the browser window. I don know where
am i doing wrong. Please suggest me . I cracked my mind for hours but in vain. So
please help me out.
Thanks in advance
Binay
