wrong code: why?

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
May 03.2008

I got the code from the link:
[url]http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/showthread.php?t=165252[/url]

in my php file (download.php), I add code:

<?php
header(“Content-type: application/zip”);
include “/path/to/file/myfile.zip”;
echo file_get_contents(“/path/to/file/myfile.zip”);
exit;
?>

but when I visit the php file, I download the php file itself (download.php) rather than the zip file “/path/to/file/myfile.zip” indicated in code.

My purpose is to hide the link “/path/to/file/myfile.zip” from user.

Could you find code errors and help me to complete my target?

thanks

I am not advanced enough to tell you if your coding is wrong. But when i had the problem with the page downloading the php file instead of processing it, it was because the server didn't know what a php was. Solved the problem once i activated it.

Success!
