i have been tryin to prompt the download of a file on the server using
the following code:
// send headers, forcing download:
header("Content-type: application/word");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename=\"files/myfile.doc\"");
...where myfile.doc in folder files is a file on the server relative
to the script:
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by
(output started at /home/marty27/public_html/test/oarsome/test_prompt.php:8)
