Friends,
Have you ever gotten a chance to force the browser for downloading a zip file? Hopefully yes. You will not get any issue unless and untill it contains multiple zip files i.e. nested zip files. Behavior is also different for IE and firefox. Below is the code to download a zip file(may be single level or nested)

<?php
ob_clean();
$yourfile="rnd_source.zip"; // file which is stored on the server
$dfile="rnd.zip"; // name of the file which will be downloaded
$fp = @fopen($yourfile, 'rb');
if (strstr($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], "MSIE"))
{
header('Content-Type: "application/x-zip-compressed"');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="'.$dfile.'"');
header('Expires: 0');
header('Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0');
header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");
header('Pragma: public');
header("Content-Length: ".filesize($yourfile));
}
else
{
header('Content-Type: "application/x-zip-compressed"');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="'.$dfile.'"');
header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");
header('Expires: 0');
header("Content-Length: ".filesize($yourfile));
}
fpassthru($fp);
fclose($fp);
?>
