The particular code that I was talking about included doing authentication outside of an ugly HTTP Auth popup box and just including a PHP script that checked that the user was authenticated, and if not, either deny access to him or redirect them to a login page. My proposal requires minimal amount of changes that the user would have to do. He can keep his downloads in the web root and not have to load ANY file into memory. The only PHP side of downloading a file that's in the web root downloads folder is to check for authentication. Thus, a very quick and scalable solution. -- Chris Weldon -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
