Trying to get digital file pro to download zip files.

I have been trying to get the digital file pro to download a zip file but it doesn't work. Can this program download a zip file, what about pdf, cbr or cbz?

yes, the download file behavior can download any file format.

send a copy of your page so I can see how you are setting the download file behavior up.

i need a copy of the PHP file that you applied the download behavior to.

compress that file into a zip archive and send the zip file.

2 problems:

1) you have not set the Folder where the file is located.

2) the File name should be a relative link to the file:
../20013Z.zip

it should just be the file name:
20013Z.zip

This is weird because I tried it again with the changes and it still does not work. Just to test it out I changed the file from a zip to a small .jpg file and it worked. It seems that something is going wrong when I try to download a zip file only, what would cause this?

Update: I also tried it with a pdf file and it didn't work. Only the jpg. Is there some size limitation or something going on here?

Please disregard the last post. It's working fine now. Thanks!
