The problem with IE was when you told it not to cache the document. If you just want the browser to download the file rather than let the Adobe plug-in handle it, as it looks like you intend with the Content-disposition set to attachment, you have to send just the right headers to make IE happy. (I think Brian's example should do it.) Otherwise, IE knows it can handle the document internally with a plug-in and will still try to open the file anyway. For some reason when IE tries to handle files like PDF, it downloads the file, saves it to cache, and then tells the Adobe plug-in to open the file from the cache. Since you've told IE not to cache the file, IE honors that request -- it builds the cache filename (and may even save the file before promptly deleting it) and then sends that file name to the Adobe plug-in which then tries to open a file that does not exist in your computer's local cache.

Unfortunately, it's not very practical. :-\ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
