I am trying to write a script to download a zip file. Here's what I
have:

header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache");
header("Content-Description: File Transfer");
header("Content-Type: application/octet-stream");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="zipfile.zip");
header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");

$outstream = fopen("php://output",'w');

$file = fopen("myfile.zip","rb");
if ($file) {
while(!feof($file)) {
fwrite($outstream, fread($file, 2048));
}
fclose($file);
}
fclose($outstream);

When I run the script, I get a dialog box asking me to save the file.
The file is saved fine, but I cannot open it from the Windows Explorer
(Windows tells that the compressed file is invalid). 7Zip however has
no problem opening it and extracting the files. Any ideas?
