Hello,

I want users to be able to download files on my website. The files will
not be located on my site but on some other domain.

I also want to be able to register the download first and then start it
to the user.

I imagine I would have a hyperlink on a page saying 'download here'
This in turn would pass an id number to a page called download.php so
the hyperlink would be "blah blah blah download.php?id=1234" etc.

The download.php would also insert the date and time of the download
into a my sql db.

I can get this far myself but I am stuck now as how to actually then
start the download once I've logged it.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

td.
