File downloading

[mediafly]

I am trying to make a script that reads a folder and echos a link for each file in the folder into a downloadable file.

I am having a hard time getting the download fuction to work in the for loop.
Here is the script with just a link to the file.

Any help appreciated!

<?php

$path = ".";   

$types = "[]";

$all = opendir($path);

$theFiles = array();

while ($file = readdir($all)) {
if (!is_dir($location.'$path'.$file) and $file <> ".." and $file <> ".") {
if (preg_match($types,$file)) {
array_push($theFiles,$file);
}
}
}

echo '<ul>
';

$arlength = count($theFiles);
for ($i=0; $i<$arlength; $i++) {

echo '  <li><a href="'.$path.'/'.$theFiles[$i].'">'.$theFiles[$i].'</a></li>
';
}

echo '</ul>';

?>

if you direct a hyperlink to a file not recognized by the browser it will automaticly try download it.

but if you mean to download html files with a hyperlink i think u need javascript

I changed the code a bit with an unlink file. I want to use something like this with the php code but all I got was empty download with this method:

header("Content-disposition: attachment; filename=\"$file\"");
header("Content-type: application/octetstream");
header("Pragma: ");
header("Cache-Control: cache");
header("Expires: 0");

<?php

if(isset($_GET['delete'])){
$var = deleteFile($_GET['delete']);
}

function deleteFile($file2){
if (unlink($file2)){
echo "file deleted";
return true;

}else{
echo "file not deleted";
return false;
}
}

$file_dir=".";
$dir=opendir($file_dir);

echo "<ul>
";
while ($file=readdir($dir))
{
if ($file != "." && $file != "..")
{
echo "<li><a href=".$file_dir."/".$file." target=_blank>".$file."</a> | <a href='?delete=$file_dir/$file'>delete</a></li>
";
}
}
echo "</ul>";

?>
