Re: Re: A general question

You have to trick the browser into thinking that the jpg file is something other then a jpg. This is sketchy and does not always work. Something like this maybe $len = filesize($file_path); header("Content-Type: application/force-download"); header("Content-Type: application/octet-stream"); header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$file"); header("Content-Title: $file_path"); header("Content-Length: $len"); readfile($file_path); $fh=fopen($file_path,'rt'); @fclose($fh); HTH <?php /* Stephen Johnson c | eh The Lone Coder http://www.thelonecoder.com stephen@thelonecoder.com 562.924.4454 (office) 562.924.4075 (fax) continuing the struggle against bad code */ ?> > From: zzapper <david@tvis.co.uk> > Date: Mon, 07 Mar 2005 17:19:30 +0000 > To: php-general@lists.php.net > Subject: [PHP] Re: A general question > > >> How can I click on a link which is linked to a JPG file and instead of >> displaying it in the browser save it somewhere on the local machine or >> open in a different software ? >> >> Please help very urgent >> >> Thanks >> vaibhav
