Hello Eddie,
As Jim <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> correctly noted you should play with
MIME types. Here is a working solution, it works correclty in MSIE6,
Netscape6.2, Netscape4.7, GetRight :-), and partly works in Opera6.1
disp.php:
<?php
$file = 'moyo.jpg';
$fp = fopen($file, 'rb');
header('Content-type: application/x-unknown');
header('Content-disposition: "attachment"; filename="saved_moyo.jpg";
size='.(string)filesize($file));
while (!feof($fp)) {
echo fread($fp, 1024);
}
?>
This bit of code allows you to save any file under specified name.
In Opera6 "Save As..." pops up, but file saves under script name, and
not under specified name.
Not very useful with large files, because it does not support resume,
and if connection brokes user will have to re-download file from the
beginning.
You can also use fpassthru() or readfile(), but I would not recommend
it, because these 2 functions attempt to read an entire file into
memory and then output it, and we don't want to have large files in
memory, do we :-)
