Hi, i'm trying to figure out how to force download a generated file that comes from a custom field in a post.

my download.php file has:
$filename = $_GET['id'];

and then the usual switch cases and header definitions.

my usage for calling the field is :
">

Now, i need help connecting the two so that my custom field url is given an id and so that apache can apply the correct header definitions.
