FIREFOX will recognize an absolute HTTP://www.site.com/path/file.pdf OTHER BROWSERS WILL NOT. use relative: 'path/file.pdf' for downloading files/pdfs: make certain to check if(file_exists($file)){header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="'.basename($file).'"');} else{echo "$file not found";} - This can be frustrating when your downloads are working in Firefox , but not other browsers. Best to check if file exists first because that will let you know if it's going to work all around. ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 66.185.170.90 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.readfile.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/84755 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/84755/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/84755/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/84755/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/84755/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/84755/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/84755/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/84755 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/84755 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
