Hi Gareth,

Completely un-tested, but something like the following should do the trick

PHP Code:


			
header('Content-type: text/plain');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="backup.sql"');
readfile($backupFile);

That should popup a download dialouge (default name of backup.sql - might want to change that to include the date or something).

Alan.
