Hi,

Im trying to download a file which is an attachment of an Invision Power
Board forum but I have some problems with that.
The problem is that download doesnt start or I don't know how to make it
work because it's not just url to file but to php script which normally
triggers download in browser.

Code Im using (C) :

    curl_easy_reset(curl);
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "
http://www.someIPBforum.com/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=1428");
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1;
WOW64; rv:2.0.1) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/4.0.1");
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 30);
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 1);
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_FOLLOWLOCATION, 1);
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_COOKIEJAR, COOKIE_PATH);
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_COOKIEFILE, COOKIE_PATH);

    struct MemoryStruct PageData;
    PageData.memory = (char*)malloc(1);
    PageData.size = 0;
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_WRITEFUNCTION, WriteMemoryCallback);
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_WRITEDATA, (void*)&PageData);

    CURLcode Code = curl_easy_perform(curl);

And response from server is:

* About to connect() to www.someIPBforum.com port 80 (#0)
* Trying <here was ip>... * connected

So, why download doesnt start. The buffer is empty but respone looks ok.
