        Garry, thanks for fix. But I have problem with downloading swf files.
        Browser try to open file instead of download.

          It could be just your browser’s settings. Try with another browser, or look into your browser’s file type settings.

            What browser do you use?
            I tried to download swf file with Chrome (3 beta), FF 3.5.2. Same result.

            Did you try to download swf file?

              I don’t think you can download .swf files without special browser utilities and plug-ins. Most sites are far more concerned with preventing direct download of their flash movies!

                Yes, you are right. But it is my server, my file manager. I want to download my swf file.
                If I make right-click on the file and select "Download file", file downloaded without problems.
                I think need to dig into http-headers.
