header and rename before download

[PapRika]

I want to send an image with an other image name than the original and I don't want want to use rename and copy commands. In the code the image $image will sent to the browser. I want to send THAT image with another name which IU can define.

Anybody?

$image="$root_database/$row[im_user_id]/$locatie$im_original";



if( file_exists("$image")) {


if ($fd = fopen ($image, "rb")) {
   $fsize    =filesize($image);
   $fname    = basename ($image);

   header("Pragma: ");
   header("Cache-Control: ");
   header("Content-type: application/octet-stream");
   header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"".$fname."\"");
   header("Content-length: $fsize");

   fpassthru($fd);
}
}

you've already got part of it there.

header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"whatever_you_want.ext\"");

use that portion to set the filename the downloader will see.

Thanks. I was wondering about that, too.

Yes thanks too! I thought $fname was also the the exact name of the image.
I have another question maybe you can solve,

How can I delete a whole directory at once with all the file that are not in use? Maybe I will start a new subject.
Thnx
