I'm using this method, works fine with 50mb+ files :

    if( $fd  = fopen ($filepath, 'r')){
      while(!feof($fd)) {
        $buffer = fread($fd, 2048);
        print $buffer;
      }
      fclose ($fd);
      exit;
    }

Is there a reason why you assign the output of fread() to a variable and then print it? Why not just: print(fread($fd, 2048)); which would be faster because it doesn't need to assign to a variable, wouldn't it? Maybe I'm missing something.. Jasper
