Help with file downloads.

Hi,
My first post. Been writing php from scratch for about 12 months, mainly
with what I learnt from the web. Have a problem trying to download
multiple files. I'm using the following code:
if (file_exists($file)) {
header('Content-Description: File Transfer');
header('Content-Type: application/octet-stream');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename='.basename($file));
header('Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary');
header('Expires: 0');
header('Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0');
header('Pragma: public');
header('Content-Length: ' . filesize($file));
ob_clean();
flush();
readfile($file);
// exit;
}
from the the php manual under "readfile". The files are text files <1Mb
in size. Only the first file is downloaded. (The exit; statement is
excluded). What should I do?
Thanks
Tony

Is that script in a loop or something, as by itself, it'll only operate
on one file.
