I am having trouble with the following function working _with_ sessions. If I turn off my session checking function it enables you to download the file flawlessly, if sessions are turned on then Internet Explorer displays an error: Internet Explorer cannot download ...URL Internet Explorer was not able to open this Internet site. The requested site is either unavailable or cannot be found. Please try again later. Is there a way I can download large objects from postgresql _with_ sessions? Thankyou. function retrieve_file($id) { global $dbconn1; $result1 = pg_exec ($dbconn1, "select data, file_name from files where id='$id';"); $image_oid = pg_result($result1 ,0, 'data'); $file_name = pg_result($result1 ,0, 'file_name'); header ("Content-disposition: filename=\"$file_name\""); header("Content-type: application/download"); pg_exec ($dbconn1, "begin transaction;"); $image_handle = pg_loopen ($dbconn1, $image_oid, 'r'); pg_loreadall ($image_handle); pg_loclose ($image_handle); pg_exec ($dbconn1, "commit transaction;"); } } -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
