well, i really can't confirm what your seeing. but that is why i orginally
started this topic. i will do some tests..
are you setting headers before output? i just ran into another problem..
when downloading a .tar file it just returns an empty .tar file.. seems to
work fine with .exe, .zip, tar.gz, but not .tar
any ideas?
this is what im using:
header('Content-type: application/octet-stream');
header('Expires: ' . gmdate('D, d M Y H:i:s') . ' GMT');
header('Content-transfer-encoding: binary');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="' . $file['type'] . '"');
header('Content-Length: ' . filesize($file['path'] . $file['type']));
header('Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0');
