Major - Header problem

[rohini]

Dear friends,
In the popup window i am using the header for downloading the files.
I call the popup window in one directory say for example:
/sample/download/popup.php
In the popup.php i call the function
window.open('../export/export.php');

In the export.php i am using the form action as export_type.php .
In the export_type.php i includes some file . In that one file contains the function for downloading.

If i am using like this my download program is not working what is the
problem here.
If i am using all the files in the same directory then my header is working.
Kindly anyone can address my problem.


With Regards

Where do headers come into this...?

Could you be more clear about what you are trying to do?

Hello sir,

I am using the headers for downloading.
I explain the problem in detailed.
*************** *************** *************** *************** *****
=> The file rohini/sample/popup/popup_window.ph p file call one popup window.
=> Inside this file file i call the window like this.
button5.onClick = "function () {
window.open( '../quality/src/qm_export_frame .php');
}\n";
*************** *************** *************** *************** ******
=> In the ../quality/src/qm_export_frame .php i am include the files
Inside the ../quality/src/qm_export_frame .php file
* I am using the form
<form name=test method=post action="qm_type _export.php">
And also i am having one hidden box here.
* Whenever the form is submitted it calls the file
qm_type_export. php
qm_type_export. php includes some more files
* qm_type_export. php file contains
include("export ing_functions.p hp");
* So i get the value from the hidden box .
* Say if the hidden box value contains one then i call the function
known as call_export().
* The call_export() function is available in the file
exporting_funct ions.php.
* Inside the call_export() function i am calling the function
call_mime(type) .
*************** *************** *************** *************** ******
function call_mime($titl e)
{
header('Content-Type: text/css');
header("Content-length: ".filesize($tit le));
header('Content-disposition: attachment; filename="abcde .csv"');
readfile($title );
}
*************** *************** *************** *************** ******


So this is my infrastructure of the program.
My problem if i call the call_mime($titl e). It does not work.

But if i am calling the window and all the files related to the same
directory then it is working.

This is my problem.
