Re: Binary File Download problems.

I use the following headers to send the file (in this instance an mp3 file) --8<--- header("Cache-control: private"); header("Content-Type: application/octet-stream"); header("Content-Length: " . filesize($file_path)); header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=" . $filename); --8<--- So you get a download window with the correct filename displayed and everything. tried using header("Content-Type: audio/x-mp3"); which proceeded to stream the file (cool but not the desired effect) so at this point started scratching my head. What is confusing me is that I thought that once the download starts I should really be able to continue browsing as normal, as if I have clicked on a direct link to that file. At least that's what I want to acheive. Thanks. On Friday 25 Apr 2003 12:15 pm, you wrote: > What headers do you use? Do you use > header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$filename" ); > > ?
