• PHP generate file for download then redirect 11 answers

I use the following code to download an xml file

<?php
header('Content-type: text/xml');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="download.xml"');
echo simplexml_load_file('temp.xml');
unlink('temp.xml');
?>

I would like to redirect to index.php after this. How do I do this?

header('location...) and meta refresh do not work

</div>

Answer 1

Well because you send the header and content this can't be done.

You have to redirect first and then let the file download on the target site.
