Hi Tijnema, To be clear, this can work for the client downloading say a music (mp3) file from the server to their local hard drive? If so, that would be great, but I just want to be clear I spelled out the issue properly. Thanks tons! Skip
I'm sorry, i thought you meant you wanted to transfer from 1 server to your own server. With this i can't help you any further i think, The code posted by Nicholas Yim isn't very succesfull too i think as it only shows you when the server outputted the last piece of the file to the client, but that is NOT the same as when download is completed. I don't know if it is even possible in PHP, as i don't have a way to do it now. Tijnema Tijnema ! wrote:
