I am self studying php and I am creating a sample test site which lets the user input the file code which will be used to determine the file path of the folder to be downloaded. The code i have below will only download a single file. What i want now is to download and zip the whole directory. Please help. Thank you in advance
<h3>Search Client File</h3>
<form method="post" action="#" id="searchform">
Type the Image Code:<br><br>
<input type="text" name="icode">
<br>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Search">
</form>
<?php
$fcode=$_POST["icode"];
if (!empty($fcode))
{
$file="/var/www/website/$fcode.tif";
if (file_exists($file))
{
header('Content-Description: File Transfer');
header('Content-Type: application/octet-stream');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename='.basename($file));
header('Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary');
header('Expires: 0');
header('Cache-Control: must-revalidate');
header('Pragma: public');
header('Content-Length: ' . filesize($file));
ob_clean();
ob_end_flush();
readfile($file);
}
else
{
echo "The file $fcode.tif does not exist";
}
}
else
{
echo "No Values";
}
?>
