you don't need the filename at the end..
Correct. The $path variable you have above should be sufficient. No need to include the filename at all.
Thanks, but just tring to understand, what does the link, link to? how does this work?
it's a simple file streaming through a php script which allows you to add more features like password protection to your files..
