[qadeer_ahmad]

Hi,
I am download a avi file to server, script working fine in window xp with xxamp and download file and this file run good.
But when i run this script in win server 2003 under iis 6 its work same and download a avi file but this file not running in any movi players its appear bad format.

	    $ch = curl_init(); 		 
		curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_URL,$search_url); 
		curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_USERPWD,"$user:$pass"); 
		curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER,1); 		
		curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER,FALSE); 
		curl_setopt($ch,CURLOPT_HEADER,1); 
		$content = curl_exec($ch); 		
		curl_close($ch);		
		$myFile = $vd_name;

	$fh = fopen($myFile, 'w') or die("can't open file");		
	fwrite($fh, $content);		
	fclose($fh);

i think its need header information how can i add header information for this avi. Note i am not force downloading to browser i am saving this file on server end.

I believe movie files are considered binary information, so your fopen() call should use either "w+b" or "wb".

$fh = fopen($myFile, 'wb');
