Hi, I have the same problem Mail me if you have an idee (alex@netflex.nl) if (!($fc = fopen($base_path . $path . $file, "rb"))) { echo "error\n"; exit; } $file_size = filesize($base_path . $path . $file); ob_end_clean(); ignore_user_abort(false); if(strpos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 'MSIE')){ // IE cannot download from sessions without a cache header('Cache-Control: public'); } header("Content-type: application/octet-stream"); header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"".$file."\""); header("Content-length: ".(string)($file_size)); if ($description!="") { header("Content-Description: " . $description); } while(!feof($fc)) { set_time_limit(5); echo fread($fc, 10240); flush(); } fclose($fc); exit; In article <20020619202210.96898.qmail@pb1.pair.com>, dariusz@bulgaria.com says... > > >OS: WinXP Pro >Apache 2.0.36 >PHP 4.2.1 (module) > > >A simple script: > >$f = "e:/web/old.zip"; >header("Content-type: application/zip"); >header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=old.zip"); >header("Content-Length: " . filesize($f)); >$fp = fopen($f, "rb"); >if (!$fp) exit("FILE ERROR"); >while (!feof($fp)) >{ > print fread($fp, 4096); >} >fclose($fp); > > >The first ~8kB of the downloaded file are OK but from then on the downloaded >file is totally screwed up, the filesize is correct though. >With small files it seems to work fine (the one above is ~11MB). > >Also tried with readfile(..) and with fpassthru(..), doesn't work either. > >Anyone encountered similar problems or even better: has a solution to this? > >-- Dariusz > > >
