Many thanks but somehow I dont think that snippet of code on its own will do
what I want. I was looking for the complete code. I have tried the following but
it failed miserably. What am I doing wrong?

<?php
$dir_name = "/books/";
$file = "downloadtest.pdf";

$content = file_get_contents($dir_name . $file);

header('Content-Type: pdf');
header('Content-Length: ' . filesize($dir_name . $file));
header('Content-Disposition: 'attachment');
echo $content;
?>

Regards
Dynamo
