I am following @rochacbruno's pdf view example here
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/web2py/tWG-GBN-Re0/vbrZOknlBgAJ . The
code is as follows below, it works brilliantly but I wanna know how I can
have the pdf displayed or downloaded with a proper name which i select as
opposed to this *( aaf5d3f7779841d0.**6e65775f64616c5f68656c702e7064*
*66.pdf ) *
<http://127.0.0.1:8000/pdfs/static/pdfs/pdfs.file.aaf5d3f7779841d0.6e65775f64616c5f68656c702e706466.pdf>
*CODE*
*<model>*
*db.define_table('pdfs',*
* Field('file','upload',*
*uploadfolder=request.folder+'**static/pdfs')*
* )*
*</model>*
*Create a viewer function wich redirects the user direct to the file, then,
if the user has adobe acrobat plugin to view the file in browser, this file
will be shown in the browser, else, will be downloaded.*
*<controller>*
*def viewer():*
* row = db(db.pdfs.id <http://db.pdfs.id>==request.args(0)*
*).select(db.pdfs.file).first()*
* redirect(URL('static','pdfs',**args=row.file))*
*</controller>*
*Now you can call this as:*
*http://127.0.0.1:8000/pdfs/default/viewer/3
<http://127.0.0.1:8000/pdfs/default/viewer/3> #record id*
*which redirects the user to:*
*http://127.0.0.1:8000/pdfs/static/pdfs/pdfs.file.aaf5d3f7779841d0.6e65775f64616c5f68656c702e706466.pdf
<http://127.0.0.1:8000/pdfs/static/pdfs/pdfs.file.aaf5d3f7779841d0.6e65775f64616c5f68656c702e706466.pdf>*
