First of all Happy New Year to everyone!

I'm not sure this is the right place to ask but..I hope someone will point me to the right directions.

I need some sort of a script that will redirect a user to a .html page when he goes to a file. When the user is redirected to this html page there's a countdown timer - counting from 10, 9, 8....etc. When the timer reaches 0, the user is redirected to the file he requested. Makes sense?

Every link will be on a html page (i.e. www.domain.com/files/file1.zip). I don't want the user to be able to directly download this file.

Let me show you something like what I want in action.

http://rapidshare.de/files/10258061/Rose.jpg.html

As you see the file got renamed (somehow) to Rose.jpg.html - this is what I want (if possible).

When you go to http://rapidshare.de/files/10258061/Rose.jpg.html there's a lot of stuff there but if you scroll down, there's the "Free" button which will display the image.

My english is not that great but I hope you got the point. If someone can help me with this or point me to some directions....I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks for reading

I think you should able to do that with javascript or even php. Why you need shell scripts? any specific reason?

I think they are using something like Apahce Mod ReWrite support to redirect user.

I think it can be done with javascript and/or php but not sure how. I don't really want a shell script. I didn't know where to post so I posted here. Admins or mods, move this thread to another forum if necessary... I was just asking if someone knows how to do it

Note sure what you want. I really don't know php or javascript. All I can say it is some sort of server programming along with apache. I saw the source code of both pages. When you uploaded Rose.jpg it was NOT stored on normal location it was somewhere in protected area so that you can not directly access or download it using wget. When you click on Free button it copies back file to random location or may be soft link and you can get it. Everytime download url changes and if u try to use wget it will not work

It is all hard core php programming I think along with MySQL to keep track of all uploaded and download files plus it use session along with Apache rewrite i guess.

Thanks for replying. Anyone know how to do this? I'm willing to pay. My budget is $50 for this script.

Let us say your download filename is
first.bmp

Then your main page name is index.php. index.php redirects using rd.php

index.php

Code:

<?php
function redir_link( $url, $text )
{
?>
<?php echo( $text ); ?>
<?php
}
?>
<html>
<body>
<h1>Main menu:</h1>
<?php redir_link( 'first.jpg', 'Download first.jpg' ); ?>

</body>
</html>

rd.php

Code:

<html>
<head>
<script language="Javascript">
function rdPage()
{
  window.location='<?php echo( $_GET['url'] ); ?>';
}
function pageRdTimer()
{
  window.setTimeout( "rdPage();", 5*1000 );
  // 5*1000 == 5 second
}
</script>
</head>

<body onload="pageRdTimer()">
Please support us:
<h1>Here is my ad</h1>


Redirecting to download section please wait...

</body>
</html>
