ravs Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 once your file is uploaded to the server you can set header like... header("Content-type: application/force-download"); header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: Binary"); header("Content-length: ".filesize($file)); here $file is full path with file name.thanx,ravs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcarle Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I would suggest using the correct MIME Type instead of application/force-download. Different browsers may choose to interpret this differently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluberti Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I don't know about IE8, but I know IE6 and IE7 have problems with that MIME type, for instance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
