I tried to download the file from another server the fancy way in PHP, but it just display blank screen. Can You please look at my code: <?php $filepath = "http://aaaaaa.yolasite.com/resources/happytears.doc"; // $filepath = "http://users.skavt.net/~gleskovs/else/happytears.doc"; if (file_exists($filepath)) { header("Content-Type: application/force-download"); header("Content-Disposition:filename=\"happytears.doc\""); $fd = fopen($filepath,'rb');//I tried also just 'r' and am not clear on which documents should I add b for binary? As I understand only text plain files and html files and php etc files are without 'b'. All documents, presentations, mp3 files, video files should have also 'b' for binary along r. Am I wrong? fpassthru($fd); fclose($fd); } ?> Both filepaths are valid and accessible to the same document. I double checked them. Please help me. Thanks in advance, Yours, Grega
