Download file via AJAX call in PHP

Using Ajax to download files is not considered a good idea. Instead, use window.location = or document.location .

'window.location' Has the following characteristics -

• Requires JavaScript to be enabled
• No PHP required.
• It helps to display content website and redirect users after few seconds.

Redirection can depend on any condition, for example -

$success = 1
if ($success) {
   window.location.href = 'http://example.com';
}

A variable named "success" is assigned a value of 1. When this condition is met, window.location will be used.

When run, the user will be redirected to the website "http:" //example.com'
