Okay, so, oddly this problem resolved itself when I restarted my computer. There must have been some IE glitch that rebooting resolved. Uhhhgg... Microsoft the Lame strikes again. I encountered another issue, however. When I link to a page using the code below, the code executes fine and the download prompt appears as expected, but then if I choose to download I am stuck with a blank page when the download is complete. I can't redirect to another page or echo out some friendly html because headers have already been sent. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to allow the download page to display some user friendly HTML after the download has completed?

Hello Mike, I am trying to use the HTTP_Download class, and instead of getting a file for download when I execute my code I am getting some strange output, like the following: 4F\c=t~?Õz4mi®<Äf?xð-âÁC<Äf?xð-âÁC<Äf?xð-âÁC<~ö _____ Fe4­ endstream endobj 3026 0 obj<> endobj 3027 0 obj<<< PieceInfo<< 53 Metadata 55 StructTreeRoot 50 PageLabels Catalog Type 17 I am using the following code to attempt to download the file: <?php require_once("HTTP/Download.php"); $file = "../docs/15/doc.pdf"; $dl =& new HTTP_Download(); $dl->setFile($file); $dl->setContentDisposition(HTTP_DOWNLOAD_ATTACHMENT, 'download'); $dl->setContentType('application/x-octetstream'); $dl->send(); ?> I have tried setting the content type to text/html, application/pdf, and application/x-download, but to no avail. Do you have any idea what I might be doing wrong? Elliot
