Re: File download doesn't work with SSL

Are you sure? I think (I might be wrong) using PHP sessions automatically sends the Cache-Control header. I cannot remember what directives it uses. Perhaps the fact that you do not use correct case makes PHP miss the fact that you want to reassign Cache-Control to use a different value? If this is true, you might be sending: Cache-Control: no-cache cache-control: no-store Just an idea ... Chris Rasmus Lerdorf wrote:

Nope, PHP does not send that. On Mon, 7 Oct 2002, 1LT John W. Holmes wrote:

I believe in miracles. I have searched Microsoft and the first link was actually related to my problem... Okay, I found an IE issue where downloads over SSL will choke when you send a no-cache header. It says to use a no-store cache-control header, instead. I tried this: header("cache-control: no-store"); header("content-type: application/vnd.ms-excel; name='excel'"); header("content-disposition: attachment; filename=" . $filename . ".xls"); and I'm still getting the same thing. Is the no-cache cache-control header sent automatically by PHP at all? I don't have one set explicitly in my code. Any help is appreciated. ---John Holmes...
