Subject: Re: [OSM-talk] OSM XAPI - help!
Delivering data as an attachment is just adding one header to tell
the browser that it should present it as an attachment to the user.
Thus the content is the same as if it wasn't an attachment. The php
function file() works fine, as should any other function.
This doesn't seem to be what's happening here. There is a header
indicating the data is included in an attachment:
Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=data.osm
The html file itself does not include the OSM data, just some stuff
about the parameters of the call, copyright, etc.
If I call the xapi script using a browser it downloads the data.osm
file but if it is called from my own PHP script (on my server) I just
get the html file and not the data file.

I am making this request here because I am not sure who looks
after the xapi code. I have posted a question on the xapi talk
page on the wiki but it may not get noticed.
I am using my limited skills as a PHP novice to access subsets of
data via xapi for conversion to a compact binary format, but the
query format (eg. osmxapi.hypercube.telascience.org/api/0.5/way
[highway=motorway|trunk][bbox=....] delivers the data as an
attachment (data.osm) and I do not know how to access this using
PHP. My script is derived from those by Adam Boardman and Paul Fox
for the binary data proposal which use the OSM API and expect the
XML data to be in the body of the HTML rather than as an attached
file. But the standard API is limited to 0.25 degrees and does not
allow the content filtering offered by xapi. I would appreciate
some advice from the xapi expert(s) on how to...
get the data bundled into the body or...
tell xapi where to save the data file attachment or...
save/open/read the data file using PHP
