Lumit Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 hello, I was hoping to make a download link on my website. However I want it to download the source code for my site (so I can easily make backups) and .txt files. I can't zip them because my content management system is constantly changing them. I've tried looking for tutorials on this but they are telling me to just make a normal link, which I can't do because it's my website's source code! Any help would be appreciated.

lemmin Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 You can simply save your source as a txt file and the link will just show the text. If you need it to dynamically actually show the source of the current page that is being viewed where changes will be made or something (and you don't want to remake the txt file everytime it changes), then you probably want to use php to change the headers.

ToonMariner Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 add some code to cahce your pages as they are produced - that way you won't have to manually save each one. you could then just download the cached version of your site!!!
