Cronjob that'll dl to server

[mattyb515]

I'm looking to have the script that I've made auto dl in a cron job to our webserver. I can get the script to work perfectly so that a window pops up and it gives you the option to save to the hard drive but I want it to save to the webserver instead.

header("Content-type: application/octet-stream");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=BSDailyOrders".date("Y-m-d").".xls");

Those are the header statements that relates to it but I have no idea how to get it to autodownload to the server. Any thoughts?

the headers are to give hints to the client but this time your script is the client.

checkout php for curl functions or file functions. curl is a http specific lib and the file functions do support http/ftp through php file wrappers. you need your script to use such functions to download the file from somewehere to your server then.

Thanks hakre,

I've looked into cURL and I actually think the easiest way to do this might be with fopen() fwrite(), etc. Now I just have to go through and redo the code a little.
