Might not be connected at all, but I had a similar problem with pdf stored in a postgreSQL database as large object. The content type was set to pdf, but ie wouldn't open it. It turned up that it was because there was a CRLF at the end of one of my script, which spoiled the whole output. Pretty dumb thing, but it kept me busy for a good hour. If you're desperate for a solution, look for an unwanted new line somewhere in your file out of the <? ?> tags.
good luck .b -----Original Message----- From: Scott Fletcher [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 13 October 2003 22:15 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [PHP] header() function for displaying an opened PDF document. I seem to be having problem with sending the PDF document to the browser to be open on screen. I kept getting the error message, it say 'Windows cannot open this file'. Here's my sample script, so what am I doing wrong?... --snip-- header("Content-Type: application/pdf"); header("Content-Length: '40736'"); header("Content-Disposition: inline; filename='junk.pdf'"); --snip-- Thanks, Scott F. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
