Does not download correctly: can't open the link. Help appreciated. I am new to PHP and MySQL. I have MySQL set to BLOB for the content and I am not sure how to be clearer, I can see the link(s) for the file with the respective id to the file content $id in the url, but when I click on the link nothing opens up, I want to be able to open the file inthe brownser. I intend on being able to open .zip files and extract in later development. A sfar as security please also explain in good details so I can learn. I see my code was mod, but still not working in the array link.
