Hi, I retrieved a script to export my database to excel. the excel however is downloaded using the header

header("Content-type: application/octet-stream");
    header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=reports.xls");
    header("Pragma: no-cache");
    header("Expires: 0");
    print "$header\n$data";

When I try and redirect him to a page, the download isn't done.
How can this be fixed? Im using RC2. Kind regards

I can suggest you to upgrade to RC3 and use File::download()

Okay, sill try and do that. But where can I find the documentation on the download() function?
Doesn't seem to be in the file docs...

You can find this function in fuel/docs on Github ( develop branch ) :

http://fuelphp.com/dev-docs/classes/file/usage.html /\ development branch docs, you might need to update your core from the Develop branch on git.
