Re: [PHP] download not working

[Jochem Maas]

are people supposed to smell what is not working?
do you get any errors? is it possible the PDF was corrupt
when you uploaded it?

my code is as follows, all I get is a corrupt pdf file.....

$query= "SELECT * FROM publications WHERE alphabet='a'";

 $result= mysql_query($query);
   while  ($row = @mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC)){

    $row['pdf_size'] = $row['pdf_size']/ 1024;
 $row['pdf_size']= number_format($row['pdf_size'], 0);
 $size= $row['pdf_size'];
$name = str_replace("_", " ", $row['pdf_name']);
$name = str_replace(".pdf", "", $name);
$link= $row['content'];

echo "<span class=\"pdflinks\">$name</span>";
echo "&nbsp;&nbsp;";
echo "<span class=\"sizes\">($size kb)</span>";
//<a href="#">ross</a>
?>
download is here......
<a href="a-z.php?id=<?=$row['id'];?>">link</a> <br>
<?

if(isset($_GET['id']))
{
 echo "id is this";
$id    = $_GET['id'];
$query = "SELECT * FROM publications WHERE id = '$id'";

$result = mysql_query($query) or die('Error, query failed');

$pdf_size=$row['pdf_size'];
$pdf_type=$row['pdf_type'];
$pdf_name=$row['pdf_name'];
ob_clean();
header("Content-length: $pdf_size");
header("Content-type: $pdf_type");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$pdf_name");
echo $content;


exit;
}
}
