It is the stdin of the script, you can open that file handle with fopen(
"stdin", "r" ); i believe

I have found that to make sure it works with all browsers you want to put
quotes around the filename in the content-disposition header.
header( "Content-tpye: application/zip" );
header( "Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"yourfile.zip\" );
readfile( "/path/to/yourfilname.zip" );
the reason I say this is because without the quotes, some browsers insert
a "[1]" or something similar without them.

There is no way to tell if the download completes, I don't think, that is
a client side thing that if you send the content-length header it should
know if the file downloaded successfully or not, the browser does not send
a "success" signal back. Also, if you put quotes around the filename in
the Content-Disposition header, it will save the file with the exact
filename you specify, the RFC doesn't specifiy that it has to be this way,
but I have found that putting quotes around it makes it work for pretty
much any browser I have tried.
For your other problems, I would deconstruct them one by one and try and
get a piece of it working and then put the pieces together, it sounds like
you are trying to get too much done in one pass and it is causing you
problems.
Cheers,
