You'd do it just like the people do images in MySQL. But, it's probably *WAY* better to just store the PDF in a non web directory somewhere, and put the PATH in your database. Then you can just use http://php.net/readfile to spew it out. Actually, you'll want to do some URL munging so browsers (IE) can't screw up and insist it's not a PDF just because the URL doesn't *look* like what they expect a PDF URL to look like. You can find my posts in the archives about PATHINFO, or an FDF article in php architect I wrote that covers this (and more) or... -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm
