How to get the download completed status?

Hi,

To provide download functionality, I used the below code.

Response.Conten tType = "applicatio n/x-download";
string strFileName=@"d :\Landscape.jpg ";
Response.AddHea der("Content-Disposition", "attachment ;
filename=testin g.jpeg" );
Response.WriteF ile(strFileName );
Response.End();

Once the file is downloaded completely, I would like to delete that
file from server. Is it possible to capture the download completion
stage? Anyone please suggest!

You can't do it with server-side code only. You need to include some
java-script embedded in the .aspx page that will make the browser save
the file locally and then issue a post-back event which will be
detected on the server.

in javascript too. Can you please suggest me to start with?

I don't want to time out whole script, just a part if file won't download in 2mins then skip to the next one. Previously, I had a Javascript implementation with AJAX, this time I thought of doing it in PHP since PHP has far better array functions, I don't have to do...

Is there any way to track completion of a download with PHP? I would like to be able to check if a download completed successfully. My first thought is that I might need to use an applet? Any suggestions appreciated.
