Re: [PHP-DB] raw file header in http From: Dobromir Velev (dobromir <email protected>)

Hi,
I think you could use something like this

$file_name="/tmp/your_file_name";
Header ( "Content-Type: application/octet-stream");
Header ( "Content-Length: ".filesize($file_name));
Header( "Content-Disposition: inline; filename=$file_name");
readfile($file_name);

If you want instead of using "application/octet-stream" you can can use the
MIME type of the file you are sending for example
"application/x-compressed".
The second and the third headers are optional.

Subject: [PHP-DB] raw file header in http

I' ve a file in a directory(/tmp) out from http root of web server.
I need to open a page that send this file when it is opened (es.:
opening page.php under netscape it opens a request to save file to
disk, but the "file is out of www root"), i think i t is possible using
command header and a raw http command, but i aven't any idea if it is
possible and if yes in what mode.
The system i use is apache 1.3.9 under redhat linux 7.1,
