Download manager php mysql

Adminer development priorities are: 1. Security, 2. User experience, 3. Performance, 4. We just assign a click handler to the links that point to the files, and every time one of them is clicked, we increment the number inside of the counter span tag. There is one more thing we need to do, before we call it a day. What download. However you may have noticed that, for certain file types, the default browser behavior is to open them directly. We want to initiate a download instead.

This is achieved with a couple of lines inside of a. You can find the needed SQL code that will create the table for you in table. After this, just add your login details for the database as provided by your webhost to configuration.

Great write-up! I didn't know about the. Good to know. Could you also post the MySQL table structure in the tutorial? Thank u for this tutorial. But I think there is one big problem in this method. When I press button 'download', counter is incremented.

I may cancel download and press 'download' again May be solution is add check session. In this way u may Increment counter only in one session. What do u think? Whether you hit cancel or not is up to the client, but the server should still respond that an attempted download has occurred.

A web-server will never know whether a client side download has fully completed without a client-side app. Implementing a session based download manager would not be able to establish whether a completed download has occurred. To be able to track when a download was completed server-side, you could optionally read the file and output it entirely with PHP with the appropriate header instead of redirecting the browser.

This, however, is above the level of the tutorial and the current solution with a redirect will be sufficient for most users. Yes, methodology is correct and this tutorial will be sufficient for MOST users. We can write into section variable when download was started by user.

And check this variable if download will be started again. Would love to see a way though to keep track of who is downloading. Like a shadow box popup or a slide out or down that asked people for basics like Name, Email, Phone I want to keep track of who is downloading my files for rights and credit issues. I had been trawling the internet for a decent Download Counter for my Drupal site and this does everything that I need it to.

Good tutorial!! One question,many times we do not really download the file even we click the download link we cancle for a lot of reasons later ,but you added the count I installed this script on my website and I want to add a mouse over effect to show what the file description for the file name is on my server. I saw how MadTogger did it and it looks pretty good, but to minimize space, I am hoping someone could help me with the mouse over effect.

Since the name of the file is not actually in the php file, its pretty hard for me to use it. Any suggestions I would appreciate. Great script by the way! Yes This is exactly my query. Maybe we could throw in together and ask Martin to do it I am sure there are others who would be interested in it, too. Visit the order form for details.
