Massimo,
Sorry for the delay. Work had me unplugged for a while. Hilights --
* trigger() just there to pop the form.
* dwnld() I just took right out of your 'Rolling with...' document.
* The jQuery set is on the input field and is bound to a double
click.
* The call to dwnld() is hardcoded for simplicity sake.
* No validation applied and the file in question is assumed to be
available in the upload directory.
Technically its not a redirect, but does achieve what Fran was
discussing. On my Linux clients, with Adobe 9/10 loaded, if the file
is a PDF adobe comes up in the window with the file in view.
Application(test):
--------------
Controller(filedwn.py):
--------------
# try something like
def index(): return dict(message="hello from filedwn.py")
def dwnld():
import gluon.contenttype
filename=request.args[0]
response.headers['Content-Type']=\
gluon.contenttype.contenttype(filename)
return open('applications/%s/uploads/%s' %
(request.application,filename),'rb').read()
def trigger(): return dict()
View(filedwn/trigger.html):
-------------
{{extend 'layout.html'}}
<!-- Scripts to manage display -->
<script type="text/javascript">
//Set events for form
$(document).ready(function() {
//Bind getfile() to double click event
$('form').find('#file_dwnld').css('color','blue').bind
('dblclick',function(){getfile();});
});
function getfile(){
var text = $('#file_dwnld').val();
var link = "/test/filedwn/dwnld/" + text;
window.open
(link,"mywindow","scrollbars=1,resizeable=1,width=600,heigth=450");
};
</script>
<h1>This is the filedwn example</h1>
<div id='divone'>
<div id = 'divtwo'>
<form>
<input id="file_dwnld"type="text" value="" />
</form>
</div>
</div>
