    Mobile Friendly Solution for Digital Downloads?

    Our Miva store sells audio content available both as physical CDs and as digital downloads (mp3s). We use eMedia Sales Softgoods and Digital Downloads module for the download option.

    We're hoping to develop a mobile-friendly version of the store, but in the past there have been issues with downloading content to mobile devices: clicking on the purchased download link from a mobile device will "stream" the mp3 file, but not download it.

    We definitely want the customer to be able to download and store their purchase on their mobile device (just as they would do with an iTunes purchase). We'd be grateful for any guidance for this.

    I can't remember if it's still the case, but originally that module used a php file to handle the download. If so, simply add this to the code right before the part that reads and outputs the download file:

    header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="$filename"');

    You'll just need to change $filename to the variable which defines the real filename. If you send me the php file I can probably tell you where to modify it.
