PHP File Tutorial: In this post, we will learn how to build download page. You can make a file only can download, not render direct on browser. For example, you have test.txt file in www/test/file. When your user point to http://localhost/test/file/test.txt, browser will open direct. If you want ask browser to download it, you can follow this practice

Create a file named "download.php" within www/test/file. Enter following code:

 <?
 
 
 if($_GET['act']=='down'){
 
   include "class.file.php";
     $f = "C:\\AppServ\\www\\test\\file\\file.txt";
 	
     $file = new file($f);
     $file->Download();
 }
 
 ?>
