Hey Dave, thanks for the suggestions. Sorry for the delayed reply. I posted
this on Google Groups and had no idea how to find it!
So I gave your suggestions a try---I also threw in an exit(200) to replace
the die(), just for kicks but the problem persists.
<code>
Configure::write('debug', 0);
$this->autoRender = false;
$file = APP . 'uploads' . DS . 'memorials' . DS . $id . DS . 'photos' .
DS . 'thumbs' . DS . $file_name;
header('Content-Type: image/jpeg');
header('Content-Length: ' . filesize($file));
readfile($file);
exit(200);
</code>
So, in FF the result I see displayed in the browser is simply the requested
URL: http://devel.domain.com/controller/displayFile/4/2.jpg/thumb. However
if I "view source" I see what looks to be the content of the image (just a
snippet below):
ÿØÿà� JFIF� �� � ��ÿþ�;CREATOR: gd-jpeg v1.0 (using IJG JPEG v62), quality
= 75 ÿÛ�C�
I went to bed last night thinking about what may potentially be causing this
problem---didn't come up with much. I _can_ view images successfully using
the readfile() method with a test script that does not involve CakePHP so
I'm still inclined to think Cake is the culprit. But what would Cake be
doing other than adding headers---which from my original post seem to check
out ok. I'm still stumped.
If I force a download of the file with:
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="' . basename($file) .
'";');
I can successfully view the file in Photoshop however if I open the
downloaded file using FF the same result is produced where I only see the
path to the image displayed:
file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/Administrator/Desktop/2.jpg
and the "view source" shows the image file's contents. I'm not sure what
that tells me though...
