Downloading A .gif
I have a page with lots of thumbnails of photos. I want the user to be able to dload a big version of the photo (also present on the server) by either 1) clicking on it (left mousebutton) and have a 'save as...' dialog or 2) right-clicking on it and have a 'save as...' dialog. But I don't want the the whole photo to dload to the user before he is able to rightclick it. displaying the big photos as thumbnail and then right-clicking them is not an option since it takes ages for a page with thumbanils to build up... I am not sure if 1 is possible and not sure if 2 is possible... Can anyone give me a hint?

Downloading An MP3
I'm wondering about how to setup an mp3 for downloading from my server using php. Should I use something like a filesystem object to convert the data to byte data? I'm at a bit of a loss right now.

Is there a way to dynamicaly change the filename for download? They are currently stored as12345.mp3, I would like to be able to change it to the song title, is that possible?

Downloading From Ftp Using Ftp
My question is in regards to downloading off an ftp site using a php script. Basically when i log in, i have to change to a directory (ie pictures) for example. Within that directory are sub directories 0-9. My script has to go into each of the subdir, and download files if A) The file does not exist on the local comp and the id exists in the database. B) IF the id does not exists for the file, skip downloading it. C) If the file exists already, skip download it. The hard thing is, the file i get off the ftp server is in the format of #*$!ID.jpg. I have to then compare this to my local file, which is IDxxxxxxx. How would i go on to compare and download what i dont have? So far the only thing i can think of is first creating an array of the ids from the database. Then preg_match'ing the file from the ftp server. And then comparing it. But i dont know how this is done.

Downloading
I am facing few problems in the code. mainly in the download section. i have gone through all the code realated to that section. but i dint find any problem. The actuall problem am facing is. the customers are supposed to download our companies software.. and the logic is working fine. but suddenly the download page was getting blank this download page contains the code which redirects to a function x, and that function sends the file to the user. in that function x. the previous coder has used @readfile($file_path)to send the download. is this occassional error is just becos of readfile function or some other.

Downloading Files Through Php
I am creating a site that will allow me to download files from my computer through the web. The problem I am having is that these files are not within the websever's root directory, so I need to use a php command to read them from another directory. I gave the webserver permissions on the shared directory and I can view text files with the fopen command. What I need to do is be able to download binary files. I don't know what the command to do this would be as fopen and readfile will only display the file in a brower window and this doesn't work for binary files.

PHP-FTP Downloading Files
I am trying to download a file to my local machine using PHP. However, when the script runs the file is placed in the folder assigned to the ftp user on the Web server instead of downloading to my local C drive. After the following script runs I find a file named C:TestShowID.txt in the user's FTP folder on the web server. Can some tell me why this happens? The local machine is a Windows XP machine. $ftp = (object) array( "host" = "ftp.mydomain.com", "user" = "user@mydomain.net", "password" = "password", "remoteFile" = "ShowID.txt", "localFile" = "C:TestShowID.txt" ); // Step one: Connect to the FTP server if(!is_resource($remoteRsrc=@ftp_connect($ftp->host))) trigger_error("Could not connect to remote " . "server {$ftp->host}", E_USER_ERROR ); // Step two: Log into the server if( !@ftp_login($remoteRsrc,$ftp->user,$ftp->password)) trigger_error("Could not log on to remote " . "server {$ftp->host}", E_USER_ERROR ); // Step Three: Attempt to copy remote file to local file if(@ftp_get($remoteRsrc,$ftp->localFile,$ftp->remoteFile,FTP_BINARY)) echo "Remote file successfully written to {$ftp->localFile}"; else trigger_error("Could not import remote file.",E_USER_ERROR); // Step Four: Close the connection ftp_close($remoteRsrc);

I have made a database in mysql, and I can put files into it with a page wich is made with php. Uploading works, but not perfectly: files get damaged along the way.(for instance. I have a file 1229 bytes big, when I put it into the database it only is 1107 bytes big, and when I get it out of the database and save it onto my harddisk only 376 bytes remain).

PHP/XML And Downloading Files

I have the same echo statement inside the function and outside and it only prints it when it is inside the function. Code:

PHP Downloading Instead Of Compliling
I have a user who is using a script I edit, and this user is having troubles with php files being downloaded instead of parsed and output to the browser screen. I have opened the page in several browsers, so it is not a browser problem, but it is very odd because some files are parsed as normal, and then others are not. And it's not file specific, meaning that at one moment one file parses fine and another gets downloaded, and then at another time, the problem is the reverse. I have many other users who use this same script and have no problems with the page being downloaded, so it must be box specific, but I have no idea what might be causing this extremely odd error.

Downloading Pdf Using Header
I want to create a file called "download.php" to handle the downloading of brochures. What I am trying to achieve is as follows: 1) From the brochure page send the brochure id to the download.php (No problem with this) 2) Select the correct brochure from the database by the id sent from brochure page 3) Insert the directy name + file name into the header file area. (this is messed up somehow) I'm new to php and not sure how to write the variables into the header. The way I have it at the moment it's not placing in the dir or the file name, when I click on download instead it opens the download window, but just the id is in there instead of the file name. Thruth is I'm not sure how to get it to work, I've been trying all morning. If anyone out there could tell me what I've done wrong I'd be greatful. As I'm going no where fast!

Automated Downloading Of Webpages
I'm doing a web programming project in my computer science course. The task is to first create a content customizable webportal according to the user's preferences. When a user login to the portal, the portal should be able to fetch the relevant information (webpages) and push it to the users. The catch is, instead of just displaying those pages in the user's browser, I need the webportal to automatically DOWNLOAD all the pages to the user (save to the client-side). Therefore, the user can read the information offline, reading form his/her own local disk. This idea is similar to Avantgo for palm users. Can I do this using PHP4 ? supported by perhaps Javascript ? If anyone here know how to do this, please do let me know coz my deadline is very very near. So I'm desperate. My focus is on the download mechanism. How to go about that.

Uploading & Downloading Files
I know there have been quite a few posts about uploading and downloading files and I recently created a photo management program for a client who wanted to be able to upload his clients' tiff photos (some as large as 80MB) so his clients could download them. My webhost only allows so much uploading so I have only gone as far as uploading multiple files in one upload with a combined filesize of 17MB. I will be testing 50MB+ in the next few days so I will let you know if that works as well. Anyway, I struggled with some of it and just wanted to share what I learned so that I can help some of you out. Here are my findings, I hope it helps...your mileage may vary. 1.)

Automatic File Downloading
When a user clicks on a certain link, the file opens when he has a registered program for that file type. For example: if I click on a link to a .doc-file, it opens in Word, if I click on a .gif-file, it opens in my browser. Does anyone know how to download a file automatically, no matter what programs are installed, so that even .html-pages are downloaded in stead of shown? Guess it can be done by sending an alternative header with the file, but don't know how to do it exactly.

This is taking FAR to long to happen. What would be ideal is to simply click on the link and get the normal download dialog up.
