Thanks heavyccasey
Im not sure which comment you are referring to, perhaps this one?
There are many posts.
|<?php
$file = '/var/www/html/file-to-download.xyz';
header('Content-Description: File Transfer');
header('Content-Type: application/force-download');
header('Content-Length: ' . filesize($filename));
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=' . basename($file));
readfile($file);
?>|

Hi guys.
I am linking to a file on a WAP site. the backend is written in PHP.
However I need to link to a file but set the content type. I've done
the
following and am wondering if this is correct:
<?
// We'll be outputting a PDF
header('Content-type: application/vnd.symbian.install');
// It will be called downloaded.pdf
header('Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename="../File/norEnglish.sis"');
?>
So basically I set the HREF to the file above (filename .php).
Let me know if there is anything that im doing incorrectly.
Thanks
