Script deliver.pl delivers file, but the name should be an other

How to give an other name on the way

[jetteroheller]

There is a download area, where the access is only by deliver.pl

deliver.pl checks for a code, this code is only one hour valid, and delivers the file

In this perl script is to deliver a zip

print "Content-type: application/x-zip\n$deliverfile";

The variable $deliverfile contains the content of the ZIP file

But there is the message box
______________________________________
Do You want to open or store the file?
deliver.pl
______________________________________

But I do not want, that the file is stored as deliver.pl,
I want to give a name like "example.zip"

Any ideas to solve the problem?

See the Content-Disposition response header. It will allow you to specify the filename.

I'm not sure it's supported by *all* browsers, but it is supported by all of the major ones (and their boutique-brand derivatives) that most of us could name without doing a search.

jdm, do you realize that was your 20001st post? I think you just set off the confetti machines.

Should you be

print

ing that header, or using the

header

instruction here?
