Hi friends,

Some people ask about the difference between

Mage::getModel() and Mage::getSingleton()

in Magento. Here is the difference between these two:

Mage::getModel('module/model')

will create a new instance of the model object (if such object exists in configuration)
So if we write:

Mage::getModel('catalog/product'),

it will create new instance of the object product each time. So,

$p1 = Mage::getModel('catalog/product');
$p2 = Mage::getModel('catalog/product');

Then $p1 is a one instance of product and $p2 is another instance of product.

While Mage::getSingleton('catalog/product') will create reference on existing object (if object does not exist then this method will create an instance using ::getModel() and returns reference to it).
So, if

$p1 = Mage::getSingleton('catalog/product');
$p2 = Mage::getSingleton('catalog/product');

Then $p1 and $p2 both refer to the same instance of product as reference $p2.

That's all.. Cheers.. :)

I have a downloadable product. After I order the product and when my order is complete, I am able to download the product links from ‘My Downloadable Products’ menu in Customer Account section.

I go to ‘My Downloadable Products’ section and I click on the links to download. However, the PDF file opens in the browser itself. I would like to have the feature that asks to download / save as instead of directly opening in the browser.

It is fine with ZIP files. It asks to download and save. However, the PDF files, Images, HTML files, etc. are directly opened in the browser. I want them to download and save. So, a window appearing and asking to save and download the file is what I want.

Solution:

There is a very easy solution to this.

By default, Magento has the Configuration settings to make those files open in the browser itself. You can adjust the configuration settings in Magento Admin to ask for download files instead of opening in the browser.
