Help with Dowmload code

Good day all, i've been trying to get files like jpeg, pdf to be downloadable on a click for download from my site. What i've been able to do just to get them to preview on the net. this files are heavy in MB & takes times to load on a browser. When u save as a jpg, and want to read, the pixels are so bad, u cant read them. The PDF files on thier own, takes more time to preview cos they are heavier than the jpg

Plesae can someone help me with this download code, it could be n php or java. I would really appreciate it

little bit confused with your question, do you mean want to download those files in a "new tab" ? if so, this code might help :

PHP Code:


<?php
$name = basename($filename);
$size = getimagesize($filename);
$len = filesize($filename);
header("Content-type: {$size['mime']}");
header("Content-Length: $len");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$filename");
readfile($filename);
?>

Good luck
