Description:
------------
To allow resuming http-downloads a php-script must be able to deliver a specific range from a file. Although you can use fseek to start from a specific offset, their is no way of telling fpassthru to stop before the eof.
I would like to see an optional argument 'length', which stops after sending n bytes. This would be similar to the argument of the fwrite function.

Since installing the PECL HTTP extension is not always possible (especially on shared hosts), i fully support this request. Supporting partial downloads is otherwise impossible.

This feature can easily be implemented in userland, so it's
introduction into PHP core would require discussion for which this
bugtracker is not suitable.  Instead please send mail to the
internals mailing list[1].  For the time being, I'm suspending
this ticket.
