Stut, trying that method gives me the following: PHP Warning: readfile(
\\server\folder\file.xls) [<a
href='function.readfile'>function.readfile</a>]: failed to open stream:
Invalid argument on line 44
Here's my code. Line 44 is where it stated readfile()
This document is located on a seperate server.
<?php
$folder = $_GET['folder'];
$file = $_GET['file'];
$filename = "\\\\server\\".$folder."\\".$file.".xls";
header("Content-Type: application/x-msdownload");
readfile($filename);
?>
