Generate text file on the fly for user to download using php 

Here's the code for generating a text file on the file for user to download. 
Make sure you don't have any output before this code,
otherwise it will be shown on the downloaded file also. 
 
 
<php? //Generate text file on the fly

   header("Content-type: text/plain");
   header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=test.txt");

   $str="test";
   echo $str;
   
 ?>
