If the server sends the file I would like the browser to handle the request so you get the browser's standard file download action. Is that doable? Or is it ...

I'm looking for a good web based "download manager" open source application. Mainly a web based interface to some files in a Linux server filesystem. I've looked in sourceforge and google can't find a good one. Maybe I'm searching it with the wrong keywords? PHP is preferred, but can be written in other programming languages as well. S...
