Re: MIME type

Thanks heavyccasey Im not sure which comment you are referring to, perhaps this one? There are many posts. |<?php $file = '/var/www/html/file-to-download.xyz'; header('Content-Description: File Transfer'); header('Content-Type: application/force-download'); header('Content-Length: ' . filesize($filename)); header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=' . basename($file)); readfile($file); ?>| heavyccasey@gmail.com wrote:

    Hi guys.

I am linking to a file on a WAP site. the backend is written in PHP. However I need to link to a file but set the content type. I've done the following and am wondering if this is correct: <? // We'll be outputting a PDF header('Content-type: application/vnd.symbian.install'); // It will be called downloaded.pdf header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="../File/norEnglish.sis"'); ?> So basically I set the HREF to the file above (filename .php). Let me know if there is anything that im doing incorrectly.
