This will only work if the browser supports multipart/mixed. And I don't think any browser supports this. I bet any browser except explorer ;)
But because explorer does not support multipart/mixed and it is still the major browser (thought not for long ;), do it this way. Output header('Refresh: 0; url=download.zip'); first and then load the html page with new data blocks.
