Using header() creating javascript error

Hello
I am using:
************************************************** ***********************
header("Content-Type:application/force-download",false);
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename= "
..basename($file));
@readfile($file);
************************************************** ***********************
to let user get popup window with options to download file on his
local machine.
But particuler this line:
************************************************** ***********************
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename= "
..basename($file));
************************************************** ***********************
is creating problem in code. Download file functionality is working
fine, no problems in that. But it starts creating javascript errors on
page.Javascript Error: Unspecified error.

If I am using
************************************************** ***********************
header("Content-Type:application/force-download",false);
@readfile($file);
************************************************** ***********************
Code is working fine without any javascript error but save file in
comma seperated text format which is not required format. I need file
to be in .csv format.

Please guide me thru.....

I'm not sure if this is the problem, but it looks like you have an extra
space after the filename= portion of the header. See if removing that
space fixes the error.
