Hi, I want to make some people download files the server tar's on demand. But i don't know really how to send the files back to the browser. I used the following command for taring the file: <? $command = 'tar -c '.$arrResult['name'].'.tgz .../images/'.$arrResult['image']; system($command); ?> This command starts taring, I think, but fills the browser window with the pure code of the tar file I belive. How can I make it behave different. When I search for the tar on the webserver I can't find it anywhere. Please Help Sascha
