note 58001 added to function.header

Adding onto all the helpful material here, I have something to add, discovered by trial and error. When initiating a file download with the following command: header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="downloaded.pdf"'); Ensure that the 'filename' does not contain a directory path. It will work, but Internet Explorer will not pick up the filename. Example: I had a script, called save.php which did just that, grabbing individual files in a subdirectory ("results/downloaded.pdf"). Since it was in a subdirectory, it could find the file, but IE (Using 6sp1) wouldn't pick up the name when suggesting for the 'Save' option. Firefox and Opera were fine. So, moral of the story, the 'filename' should only ever contain a filename, no directories. This is only really relevant when people couldn't be expected to know the filename/extension, like in my case with FRF files. (Note: This was my experience at least.) ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.header.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+58001 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58001&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58001&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58001&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58001&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58001&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: already in docs -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58001&report=yes&reason=already+in+docs Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+58001&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+58001&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
