Hi
After some advice (surprise!)
I currently store restricted documents beneath the web root so they are
not accessible via the URL, when a valid user wishes to view a document
i copy it to a temporary folder above the root and load it in a new
page. the only way i can then manage to delete the copy is
automatically deleting all temp files when any user goes to the log out
page.
This is obviously not a very good way of doing this but unless i can
establish when a user is no longer viewing the doc then i dont know when
to delete it. I was wandering how others deal with these problems like this
any advice appreciated greatly

I deliver restricted PDFs that are kept *above* the web root without
using a temporary file. Why do you need to create a temporary file? I
use headers and readfile.
