raydona Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 I have created a table in a MySQL database to hold Word doc CVs of Employees stored in a Blob. CREATE TABLE EmployeeCV ( id INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, EmailAddress varchar(40) NOT NULL, name VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL, type VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL, size INT NOT NULL, content MEDIUMBLOB NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY(id), ) I have no trouble uploading the CVs to the database but I am unable to download and display the CVs. I am using the EmailAddress of EmployeeCV as a key for finding a particular CV. Here is the simplified html file for submitting the email address: <html> <body> <form name="Input Employee Email For CV.html" action="Get Employee CV.php" method="post"> <p>Type Employee's email address: <input type="text" name="emailaddress"><br></p> <input type="submit" value="Submit" name="SubmitButton"> </form> </body> </html> Below is the php code for downloading the Word docs. I have tried modifying the code several times but with no success. <html> <body> <?php if(isset($_POST['SubmitButton'])) { //connection string $con = mysql_connect("hostserver.net","user","pswrd"); mysql_select_db("db", $con); $email = mysql_real_escape_string($_POST[' emailaddress']); $sql = "SELECT name, type, size, content FROM EmployeeCV ". "WHERE EmailAddress = '$email'"; $res = mysql_query($sql) or die('Error, query failed'); list($name, $type, $size, $content) = mysql_fetch_array($res); header("Content-length: $size"); header("Content-type: $type"); header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$name"); //echo $content; ?> <iframe src="$content"></iframe> <?php mysql_close($con); exit; } ?> </body> </html> Each time I get the following warning and error: Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at.......... Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. Please contact the server administrator,............ I wonder if someone could offer me a solution. I would be very grateful.
