There are issues with acrobat and IE combination. Sometimes it just does not work and you have to close all IE windows so it starts working again. You should provide a download link for these cases. Tristan.Pretty@risk.sungard.com wrote:
Well, I'm on IE V6.0.2800 My boss, has the same version. Yet.. when she hits the link, she get's the error, (unable to open file) However, I didn't say before, that it's Acrobat reader, that's giving the error. The file is downloaded etc... yet on my machine, I can see the file, and on hers, she cannot...? Stumpt... Curt Zirzow <php-general@zirzow.dyndns.org> 13/09/2003 18:54

Hi all, I have a download for that collects data from a user (name, e-mail etc) The $bu variable and others are from the previous form too. [...] So, it works great on my desktop here at work, but I just got a few
mails
from random users, who complained that they saw an error screen after trying to download pdf's.
Well did they supply any information like what the error was or what browser they were using?
Dunno if this is a PDF problem, or if my script is bad? So, here is my code... (that site at the very top of my page.) The headers after the else statement are simply to avoid page caching,
so
we can ignore them in this example..... So, why does this work for me and many others, but not all?
I'm unable to answer that. Some knowlege of what exactly the error is might help. The headers shouldn't cause error.
