We've got a page on our site which takes user information via a web form, and posts that information to an FDF file, which is sent to the client via <cfcontent>. The FDF file grabs the necessary PDF from our server, populates the PDF file with the form data from the FDF, and shows up (at least on our testing machines) inside the web browser--IE in this case. This all works fine.
The problem is that on some of our testing machines, it does not appear possible for the client to the save the merged PDF/FDF document. When an Acrobat document appears inline in IE, there is a "save" icon in the toolbar. On my local machine (not the web host, it should be mentioned), if I save the merged PDF/FDF to my desktop and then open that file, I see the PDF populated with the content from the FDF. However, on other machines in our office, if I follow the identical procedure, when I open the "merged" PDF/FDF from the desktop, all I see is the PDF in it's original state. This just makes no sense to me. I'm beginning to wonder if this is a browser issue. In my limited testing so far, it seems to work the way I expect in IE 6.0 on Windows 2000, but not in any other browser. Any insight would be helpful. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq This list and all House of Fusion resources hosted by CFHosting.com.
