Question

I am forcing a file to download. It is an xml file. The problem is that when I am downloading it, the file contains the html dump of the current page from which the download was started.Here is the snippet

File:/bitrix/modules/export/admin/export.php

 $name='market'.date('Y-m-d-H-i-s').'.yml';
 $file='/bitrix/modules/export/export/'.$name;
 $filename=$_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"].$file;
 $fp=fopen($filename,"wb");
 /*
 *
 * Here goes some generating script
 *
 */
 fclose($fp);
 header('Content-disposition:attachment;filename="'.$name.'"');
 header('Content-type: application/svg+xml');
 readfile(realpath($file));

Answer 1

It is hard to get the download script to work when it contains blank lines, different code, etc. Posting the filename after the file is generated should work. Download script example:

<?php
if ( isset ( $_REQUEST[ 'filename' ] ) ) {
  $FileName       = $_REQUEST[ 'filename' ];
  $DownloadFolder = "MyDowloads";
  status_header( 200 );
  header( "Content-type: application/force-download" );
  header( 'Content-type: application/svg+xml' );
  $saveas = $FileName;
  header( "Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"$saveas\"" );
  readfile( $DownloadFolder . $FileName );
}
?>

Hope this helps.
