greetings,The simplest way :-
I am writing a small perl script that takes user input via a Web form, writes a few files to my server, creates a zip archive that includes those files, and offers the user a link to download the zip file. I am running perl 5.8 on OS XS 10.3.
can anyone offer some expert advice concerning where on my server to put the newly created zip? in my cgi script dir? somehow, this troubles me from a security perspective (plus the fact that all of my user-accessible documents exist on a separate Volume from my core server apps). is there a better way?
thanks!

:tim
Create a directory under your document root and store the files and give links to those files as plain href. thats it
Optionally ,You can also try doing some fancy stuff like changing content type of your script and printing the zip file
