exactly , I am reading about Downloading the image ..
and somehow I am able to display the image too...but it's RAW image
CONTROLLER :::
function download($id) {
Configure::write('debug', 0);
$file = $this->MyFile->findById($id);
$type= $file['MyFile']['type'];
$length = $file['MyFile']['size'];
$nam = $file['MyFile']['name'];
header('Content-type: $type');
header('Content-length: $length'); // some people reported
problems
with this line (see the comments), commenting out this line helped in
those cases
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$nam');
echo $file['MyFile']['data']; ///WHEN I COMMENT THIS LINE ....
ONLY FILE LOCATION (database) is PRINTED
//$this->set(compact('file','nam'));
exit();
}
VIEW
<?php
echo "DISPLAY PINASTRO";
header("Content-type: image/jpg");
echo print_r((explode("/",$data['MyFile']['data']))); //THIS WAS FOR
TESTING PURPOSE THOUGH
?>
not getting how will i use <IMG> tag ???
Thanks
Karthik
