If u are asking about the regular downloadind, then all u have to do is to right click and click on "Save Target As".

I think he is asking how to download a file using PHP. I think you can just connect to the URL of the file and it will download. Not sure though.

Yea, I'm wondering how to connect to a URL that is a file and actually save it on the server.

I'm as clueless as you. Well, 100x more clueless, actually. I didn't mean to equate us.

CURL should do the trick. You can also get other software that does this and just look at their code. I know a lot of PHP does this type of thing already for updates and such.

How large of a file can you download using CURL? This seems like a neat function.

Ok, so I've got this working now and I'd like to add a progress bar. Is there any way to do this?

i dont believe there is anything native to php that can accomplish this task. Perhaps a message saying "Please wait while your file is downloading" and something animated, perhaps in flash can accomplish the overall feel of what you are trying to do, but as far as accomplishing this using php only, im pretty sure it cannot be done.

This sounds like an AJAX addon!
