+<h1>Download Helper</h1>
+
+<p>The Download Helper file helps you download data to your desktop.</p>
+
+
+<h2>Loading this Helper</h2>
+
+<p>This helper is loaded using the following code:</p>
+<code>$this->load->helper('download');</code>
+
+<p>The following functions are available:</p>
+
+<h2>force_download('<var>filename</var>', '<var>data</var>')</h2>
+
+<p>Generates server headers which force data to be downloaded to your desktop. Useful with file downloads.  
+The first parameter is the <strong>name you want the downloaded file to be named</strong>, the second parameter is the file data.
+Example:</p>
+
+<code>
+$data = 'Here is some text!';<br />
+$name = 'mytext.txt';<br />
+<br />
+force_download($name, $data);
+</code>
+
+<p>If you want to download an existing file from your server you'll need to read the file into a string:</p>
+
+<code>
+$data = file_get_contents("/path/to/photo.jpg"); // Read the file's contents<br />
+$name = 'myphoto.jpg';<br />
+<br />
+force_download($name, $data);
