File download question

Hi Everyone,

I've setup a filedownload which works but i'm having an issue, i've
left out but when it downloads it, while it has the correct file it
doesn't have a file extension associated with it, I need the .7z
extension associated with the filename, can anyone see why that would
do this below?

I'm sure it's something obvious but i'm new to doing file downloads.

Thank you everyone

Chris

$file = "SOMEFILE.7Z";
$speed = 60; // i.e. 60 kb/s download rate
if(file_exists($file) && is_file($file)) {
header("Cache-control: private");
header("Content-Type: application/octet-stream");
header("Content-Length: ".filesize($file));
header("Content-Disposition: filename=$file" . "%20");
flush();
$fd = fopen($file, "r");
while(!feof($fd)) {
echo fread($fd, round($speed*1024)); // $speed kb at a time
flush();
sleep(1);
}
fclose ($fd);
}

Re: File download question

I think that your problem in this line:

header("Content-Disposition: filename=3D$file" . "%20");

I don't know what that %20 is for and you should quote the filename,
that line should be something like this:

header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=3D\"$file\"");

Considering that $filename already has the 7z extension.

That is for IE and its silly FileName[N] rather than FileName

here a good old function to download:
