Hi Folk

I would like a php file to be a forced download as KML file, but I am
not sure how to do it.

I would like it

a. to have the KML extension (e.g. myfile.kml rather than myfile.php)
- I could possible do this by writing the output of myfile.php to
newly created file (myfile.kml) I guess

b. force it as a download and have the appropiate header.

I copied some code, but I am curious what you would recommend. Here is
the code I copied.

header("Pragma: public"); // required
header("Expires: 0");
header("Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
header("Cache-Control: private",false); // required for certain
browsers
header("Content-Type: application/vnd.google-earth.kml+xml");
header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");

Thank you

Nicolaas
