headers download

bengt

<?php
require('../../_admin_/config.php');
mysql_connect($host,$user,$pass);   //Kopler til SQL
mysql_select_db($db);


$filesize = filesize("../../upload-fil/".$_POST[filnavn]);
header ("Content-type: octet/stream");
header ("Content-disposition: attachement; filename=".$_POST[originalfilnavn].";");
header("Content-Length: ".$filesize);
readfile("../../upload-fil/".$_POST[filnavn]);
exit();
?>

When using this, It doesn't automtically store the file extension.

EDIT - sorry im a fool, missed your mime type header

Could it be because "attachment" is misspelled?

bengt

No, thats just misspeled here. I tred with outline earlier, and changed the text here in the post,
but i tested anyways, and nope... still no extension...

I'd consider checking the values of $POST['originalfilnavn'] and $POST['filnavn'], and seeing if the extensions are there or not (particularly originalfilnavn). I'd also check the headers as they're received by the client just to see what the client is receiving. And I'd look on different clients because Internet Explorer in particular is wacky when it comes to these things.

When I run this script locally on my computer
XP, Apache2, PHP 4.3.10 It works fine, but on the webserver
SunOS, PHP 4.3.10, And server API is CGI
Could the Server API->CGI be the problem, is there then perhaps a workaround?
