How do I redirect to a page after a file download has been initiated with mod_rewrite?

Just as the title states. Say an individual accesses a file from my database, http://domain.com/database/file.zip. Once that file download has been initiated, I wish the browser to be redirected to the database directory again. Here's what I have so far:

RewriteEngine On
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteRule ^Database(.zip)$ http://domain.com/db/index.html [R=301,L]

But, I get 开发者_Python百科a 500 error.

And if I am being too picky, it would be nice to ignore this function on links such as: &file=something.zip.

Either way, getting the first portion to work would be fantastic.

Edit!

Here is what worked for me in the end. Cheers!

RewriteEngine on

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} .*zip$|.*rar$|.*tar$|.*txt$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !domain\.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /dl.php?url=%{REQUEST_FILENAME} [L]

Not really possible with mod_rewrite the way you have described: once the server has started delivering content (sent a 200 status code) there is no way to initiate a second response without a corresponding second request.

If you want to do this you'll have to do it on the client side: for example launch the download targetting a separate, hidden iframe and if the download starts then you can change the page location using window.location.
