Data Problem with uuencode
I a script i telnet port 25 and part of the attachment is
echo "Content-type: application/msword; filename= "$3" "
echo Content-transfer-encoding: base64
echo "Content-disposition: attachment; filename= "$3" "
echo
uuencode -m "$3" /dev/stdout

$3 is a word document. When i send in Outlook the attached document starts off "0M8R4KGx......" but when I do the above it comes out
"begin-base64 764 /dev/stdout0M8R4KGx......."
So I can't open the one from UNIX but i can from Outlook.

Is there a way of stopping the begin-base64.. being there?

http_send_content_disposition

HTTP_SEND_CONTENT_DISPOSITION(3)					 1					  HTTP_SEND_CONTENT_DISPOSITION(3)

http_send_content_disposition - Send Content-Disposition

SYNOPSIS

       bool http_send_content_disposition (string  $filename, [bool  $inline = false])

DESCRIPTION

	Send  the Content-Disposition. The Content-Disposition header is very useful if the data actually being sent came from a file or something
       similar, that should be "saved" by the client/user (i.e. by the browser's "Save as..." popup window).

       Note

	      This function should be used in conjunction with http_send_data(3), http_send_file(3) and http_send_stream(3).

PARAMETERS

	      o $filename
		- the file name the "Save as..." dialog should display

	      o $inline
		- if set to TRUE and the user agent knows how to handle the content type, it will probably not cause the popup window to be shown

RETURN VALUES

	Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

SEE ALSO

       http_send_data(3), http_send_file(3), http_send_stream(3), the HttpResponse class if you are using PHP 5.1.0 and above.
