I am using this code:

    // send the right headers
    header("Content-Type: application/force-download");
    header("Content-Type: application/octet-stream");
    header("Content-Type: application/download");
    header("Content-Length: " . filesize($name));
    // dump the picture and stop the script
    fpassthru($fp);

to deliver a JPG image for the user to download. The requirements are
that it be done via PHP code. It works in FF but they say in IE it
just shows the image in the browser.

Anyhow know how to get IE to also download it?

Thanks.
