[PHP] RE: Mac IE File download problem - any solutions?
Hi Phillip,
If you see the original message it's already in there (it was snipped out in the
replies). Here is the code:
header('Content-Type: application/octet-stream');
header('Content-Length: '. filesize($file_info['full_file_path']));
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="' .
$file_info['filename'] . '"');
header('Connection: close');
readfile($file_info['full_file_path']);
Any other ideas? Thanks for your help.
Daniel

RE: [PHP] Mac IE File download problem - any solutions?
Actually, I think you may have misunderstood. On Mozilla (Mac), Netscape (Mac) and
Safari the script works exactly as I have intended: sending the "Content-Type:
application/octet-stream" header causes the file to download; sending the
"Content-Type: video/quicktime" causes the file to be played within the browser. On
IE (Mac OS X), some files with the .mov extension download when the "Content-Type:
application/octet-stream" header is sent, while others play in-browser, while all play
in-browser, as they should.

After re-compiling PHP with mime-magic enabled, the mime_content_type() function is
returning "video/quicktime" for the file which does not download and "text/plain" for
the one which does (even though the "text/plain" file plays fine both in-browser and
once it is downloaded). In any case, that will be my next area of investigation.

[PHP] Mac IE File download problem - any solutions?
I know this has been addressed before, but I'm wondering if anyone has ever found a
solution.
The code:
header('Content-Type: application/octet-stream');
header('Content-Length: '. filesize($file_info['full_file_path']));
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="' .
$file_info['filename'] . '"');
header('Connection: close');
readfile($file_info['full_file_path']);
The problem: When downloading certain files on a Mac using IE 5.x, files are
displayed within a browser window instead of downloading. This seems to occur mostly
with quicktime files (.mov, .mp3). Some quicktime files work, while others with the
same extension do not. BTW, after doing some research I changed this:
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="' .
$file_info['filename'] . '"');
to this:
header('Content-Disposition: filename="' .
$file_info['filename'] . '"');
but it did not help. I've also tried several other iterations of the above to no
avail.
Problem #2: if I change the first header to:
header('Content-Type: application/force-download');
a save-as dialog box comes up, but it does not carry-through the file name of the file
being downloaded - instead it sets the default file name to the name of the script
that's being executed (i.e. download_file.php).
Any help is, as always, greatly appreciated.

[PHP] Re:[PHP] Help with classes (oop)
Hi Leonard,
Try this:
total = $age.$name;
}
}
//main script
$obj = new first(35, "chris");
print $obj->total;
?>
The problem with what you were doing is that when you were instantiating the class,
with the way you have set this up, you need to pass arguments because when you create
a new instance of the class the function with the same name as the class is called
and, in this case, it is expecting arguments. Another example of a class set-up would
be:
second(35, "chris");
print $test;
?>

[PHP] Re:[PHP] Register globals on and off
Hi Davy, I found the following in the php manual: Please note that register_globals cannot be set at runtime (ini_set()). Although, you can use .htaccess if your host allows it as described above. An example .htaccess entry: php_flag register_globals on. on this page: http://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.directives.php I've also used this format in apache conf files and, I believe, in .htaccess files: php_value include_path /web/lib/php:.

[PHP] getting the size of a quicktime movie or other media files
Hi, I'm writing a php based fileserver/ftp app and I need to be able to display quicktime (and eventually other media) files via the object/embed tags. I've got everything working except for the sizing. I'd like to avoid asking users to specify the size of the file upon upload, if possible. Also, making the size very large to fit anything inside causes major layout problems, so that is not an option. So, I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to get this info from a file. Is there something analogous to getimagesize() for quicktime? I couldn't find anything in the manual. Are there any other ways to deal with this issue?
