What I want to do:
I store a pdf-file in a database table.
Then I want to show this file.
The model:
db.define_table("pdfs",
Field("pdf", "upload", uploadfield="pdfdata"),
Field("description", "text"),
Field("pdfdata","blob")
)
The controller:
def showpdf():
id = int(request.args[0])
p=db.pdfs(id)
download = URL("download", args=p.pdf)
return dict(p=p, download=download)
The view:
{{extend 'layout.html'}}
Description: {{=p.description}}
<br/>
<embed src="{{=download}}" type="application/pdf">
<div>
Cannot display embed
</div>
</embed>
<br/><br/>
<iframe src="{{=download}}" type="application/pdf">
<div>
Cannot display iframe
</div>
</iframe>
The <embed> section show an error "Error on loading pdf".
The <iframe> section shows an empty iframe and opens the Adobe Acrobat
Reader with the required pdf.
Any ideas?
Regards Martin
