I have a page that I send people to to download a file. That page is PHP. At the end of the download, I want the people sent back to my original page which is HTML. Any help would be appreciated.

if your dowload page is all script (you do not output text like "downloading file...please wait", then add the following at the end of the script:
Code: Select all
header('Location: http://www.example.com/');
if you do spit out something, do it with javascript:
Code: Select all
<script>
setTimeout ("window.location.href='http://www.example.com/'", 1000);
</script>
(you can echo this in php, it will work too.)
