Ave,

You will probably find this code pretty inefficient, although it works
flawlessly, but I ran into a problem with Internet Explorer 7, which instead
of giving the "Save as" dialog box, tried opening the file within the
Internet Explorer 7 window and displayed millions of bizarre characters on
the screen. In order to bypass that, I used a force-download method. And I
can tell you it's probably a crappy version of it. So I'm definitely
interested in and anxious on getting improvement suggestions on the code.

Here's the code (and please don't kill me):

<?php
header("Content-Description: File Transfer");
header("Content-Type: application/force-download");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=".basename($F));
@readfile($F);
?>
