<?php

if (isset($_POST['filename']) )
{
$downloadfile=$_POST['filename'];

include($downloadfile);

}
else {
include('reject.php');
}

?>

that is one way, however include will display the file, probably not what you
want. this is probbaly better:

<?php
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=" . $downloadfile);
$datafile = fopen("$downloadfile","r");
$data = fread($datafile, 1000000);
echo $data;
?>

You will of course have to add a loop os that $data become $data = $data + more
read data.
