RE: [PHP] Make fil downloadable

You need to send headers to tell the browser how to handle it see: header(); or.. if it is a php file and you want the visitor to see/download the source you would be better off giving it another extension eg .phps or .txt etc or have a handler file that did a readfile after sending headers.

The file is a .php file so I'm not sure how this is done but I've seen it been done before. How can you do this?
