Re: download script

Thanks for your reply, I am not getting an error at all. I have coded some error traping so if the files is not found it will tell you instead of displaying an error. As a test I took all of that out so the script was: $file = "/home/dlr/test/".$_GET['file']."" header("Content-Description: File Transfer"); header("Content-Type: application/force-download"); header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=".basename($file)); readfile($file); I also took out the @ as you suggested. Like that it brings up a download window like it should and then downloads a file with the correct name, but it is only about 400 bytes and cannot be read.
