Re: Is it possible? downloading file via PHP while masking the URL

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 header('Content type: text/html'); readfile('http://www.google.com/'); should work. file() returns an array, not a string. you could echo file_get_contents(), but that wouldn't solve the header issue. make sure to change text/html to whatever type of file you want to download. Apache includes a useful little list int he conf/mime.types directory if you need help On Thursday 17 April 2003 03:20 pm, Daniel R.
