Force download from memory

[eluser]s.passiatore[/eluser]
Hi to all,

how it's possibile to force download for a file from memory (not from filesystem)?
I've this code but I wan't save file on filesystem...

Code:

$data['risultati'] = $this->LoadResults->load($this->input->post('excl_type'));
$this->load->helper('file');
$name = time();
if (!write_file('temp/' . $name . '.csv', $data['risultati'])) {
   echo 'Unable to write the file';
}
else {
   $this->load->helper('download');
   $datafile = file_get_contents('temp/' . $name . '.csv'); // Read the file's content
   force_download($name . '.csv', $datafile);
}

Thanks a lot!
Stefano

I really don't see the problem here. You already have the data. Just output it.
Why are you saving it to a file and then loading it again? That doesn't make any sense.

Code:

$this->load->helper('download');
$data = $this->LoadResults->load($this->input->post('excl_type'));
force_download('myfilename.csv', $data);
// done.
