Hi all

I am trying to create a web based ftp client for my clients. The ftp part is kewl now but i dont know how to bring up the "browse your pc box" to allow the user to select where they would like the file to be downloaded. Can anyone help. If you can you are the MAN (or for that matter the WOMAN) thanks in advance

Oh... Just output the download instead of the file.

It's in the headers...

[a href=\"http://www.php.net/header\" target=\"_blank\"]http://www.php.net/header[/a]

[!--quoteo--][div class=\'quotetop\']QUOTE[/div][div class=\'quotemain\'][!--quotec--]If you want the user to be prompted to save the data you are sending, such as a generated PDF file, you can use the Content-Disposition header to supply a recommended filename and force the browser to display the save dialog. [/quote]

[code]<?php
// We'll be outputting a PDF
header('Content-type: application/pdf');

// It will be called downloaded.pdf
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="downloaded.pdf"');

// The PDF source is in original.pdf
readfile('original.pdf');
?>  [/code]
