Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=... not working as i thought it should

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

taken the following code from the php.net site the script is not working.

what is not happening is the file does not show and also the file download does not show the correct file name it seems to have the file name but has replaced the / with an underscore.


Code: [Select]<?
$PDFtoview = "minutes/PDF filename.pdf";


// outputting a PDF
header('Content-type: application/pdf');

// It will be called downloaded.pdf
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="' . $PDFtoview . '"');

// The PDF source is in original.pdf
readfile("'" . $PDFtoview . "'");
//echo($siteurl.$filename);
}
?>
