Yes, the error I get is a pop-up box saying "This is not a valid %PDF file" Here is my code: $file_two = 'archive/newsletters/Dec03PostPress.pdf'; //now view the PDF file header("Content-Type: application/pdf"); header("Accept-Ranges: bytes"); header("Content-Length: ".filesize($file_two)); readfile($file_two); Now I would think that I wasn't using the correct headers or that the file didn't exist or something of that nature, but since I get no error with the full url, I have more or less figured it was problem with loading a file from the local file system instead of the file itself being corrupt, etc. Thanks for the help, Scott Taylor - Edwin - wrote:

I understand all of the file size ones. What I really don't understand is why neither of the following examples work: /* example 1 */ /* where $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] = /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/domain.com/httpdocs */$file = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/archive/newsletters/Dec03.pdf'; readfile($file); /* example 2 */ $file = 'archive/newsletters/Dec03.pdf'; readfile($file);
How does it not work? Errors, anything? -- - E - __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! BB is Broadband by Yahoo! http://bb.yahoo.co.jp/
