How to start dowloading from a CGI script?
(OP)
Hi,
I have a page where people have to fill in personal details before they can download some files. The idea is to keep a log file from those who downloaded the files.
As I’m not at all good with Perl I succeeded at my surprise to get most of this to work! But there is one thing I can’t figure out to do and I don’t even know where to start:
When all the personal details are filled in correctly the script needs to start the download action like <a href="something.zip"> does from an html page.
How should I write this command in Perl?
Hope somebody can help me with this,
raoul

print "Location: http://www.somewhere.com/file.zip\n\n";
This must be called before you print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
