Hi!
It appears to me that my first attempt to send this message was blocked, so I'm
resending (sorry if this message should finally appear twice in the
mailinglist!).
I have trouble loading Office documents and pdf files through a action
controller.
My idea was to use Zend_Controller_Action::_response and fill it with necessary
information:
if (preg_match('/MSIE/', $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']))
{
$this->_response->setHeader('Cache-Control', 'no-store');
$this->_response->setHeader('Cache-Control', 'no-cache');
$this->_response->setHeader('Cache-Control', 'must-revalidate');
}
$this->_response->setHeader('Content-type', 'application/msword');
$this->_response->setHeader('Content-Length' , $size);
$this->_response->setHeader("Content-Disposition",
"inline; filename=" . $filename);
$data = file_get_contents($filename);
$this->_response->setBody($data);
This works perfectly for Firefox and IE 7.0.
Unfortunately, I have trouble with the same code under IE 6.0 and lower (and
can't make all visitors upgrade :( ). These browser versions don't use the
Content-Disposition header to generate a filename for the file that would be
opened in Word or Acrobat Reader. Afaik it instead uses the URI to generate the
filename. So my idea was to create URIs like:
http://localhost/app/FileLoader/openfile/filename/myfile.pdf
with
- 'FileLoader' as the controller,
- 'openfile' as the action and
- 'filename' param of value 'myfile.pdf'
This almost works, a popup opens that asks me if I would like to open or save
the file that is of type 'Adobe Acrobat Control for ActiveX'. Unfortunately,
this file is named 'myfile_pdf' and when clicking 'open', I receive an error
message.
My idea was that this might have to do with default routing I'm using (I tried
ZF1.5.0 and svn trunk).
Do you have an idea what I might have to adjust to make the code safely open
these documents in IE6?
Best regards,
Stephan
