Download Based On Database · **Released**: 10-13-2004

First of all, this is my first hack in php. Please go easy on me

Second, I don't know how to categorize this hack. If this doesn't belong here please move it. Thanks

I have searched thru the v3 for a hack that enable me to let my member download multimedia files without success.

I end up with my own hack.

Here are the desciptions

Multimedia files information such as ilenames, extension, url, etc. are stored in database.

Each file is assigned a unique id

They are output to a link like
http://www.mysite.com/forum/atmmdown...songnumber=xxx

Each time member - who are allow to download files- click on the linked

The request is sent to the included file.

Once the authorization is authenticated. The requested file will then be downloaded

I have tested this one on my own board with IIS6 and win2003

Thanks

I totally do not understand what this does?

Allow users to download files? (> attachments?)

Uhm Basically, my board has entertainment section that has music shared by my members. Everytime they upload a new song, the new song information is stored on the database.

Then other member can listen to the song and download if they want. Here is the screenshot of a song in playing mode and has download enable to member

Storing files in the database is generally not a good idea because:
1. It adds load to the database server.
2. It makes for large database tables.

No files to store in the database, take a look at his code, but I still don't get it though.

You're right.

I misread his post - it's only the file info stored, not the file.
