Quick Help/Advice Needed!

Hi,

I am downloading a zip file via php:

		header("Pragma: public"); // required
		header("Expires: 0");
		header("Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
		header("Cache-Control: private",false); // required for certain browsers 
		header("Content-Type: application/octet-stream zip");

	header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=".str_replace(" ", "", basename($zipfilename)).""); 
	header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");
	header("Content-Length: ".filesize($zipfilename));
	readfile("$zipfilename");
	exit();

The problem I am having is that when downloaded via PHP, the file (4mb) in size is being downloaded but when I come to open it, it is corrupt.

However, if i download the exact same file via FTP, the file extracts and works fine.

Is this a PHP sciprt problem or something else??

try adding linebreaks after each header, eg:

header("Pragma: public\r\n");

Thanks but to no avail. This is what I have now:

		header("Pragma: public\r\n"); // required
		header("Expires: 0\r\n");
		header("Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0\r\n");
		header("Cache-Control: private\r\n",false); // required for certain browsers 
		header("Content-Type: application/octet-stream zip\r\n");
				header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=".str_replace(" ", "", basename($zipfilename))."\r\n"); 
		header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary\r\n");
		header("Content-Length: ".filesize($zipfilename)."\r\n");
		readfile("$zipfilename");
		exit();

I have created a direct link via the url and downloaded via FTP and the file extracts fine. But by using this code above, it is always corrupt. Even though you can see the progress downloading 4mb of data.

Aaaarrrgggghhhhhh!!

Hmm.. I think that the content-type line is wrong. Try using just:

header("Content-Type: application/zip");
