i use php to force the download of any file and this is my code
index.php
<a href="download.php?file_name=example.png"><button class="details_button_T">Télécharger</button></a>
download.php
$file= $_GET['file_name'];
if (file_exists($file)) {
header('Content-Description: File Transfer');
header('Content-Type: application/octet-stream');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename='.basename($file));
header('Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary');
header('Expires: 0');
header('Cache-Control: must-revalidate');
header('Pragma: public');
header('Content-Length: ' . filesize($file));
ob_clean();
flush();
readfile($file);
exit();
}
the code works in all browsers only chrome displays an error : Double headers sent by the server
resolved its a little mistake
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="'.basename($file).'"');
