I set up a pdf document with form fields and a submit button that will submit html to a php document which generates a .fdf document.  All this is working, but when I call the .fdf document up in the browser, it then redirects me the .pdf.  I get "404 page not found", but when I hit "refresh" the .pdf loads fine with the .fdf data pluged in.

 

Any ideas?

 

create pdf function

function createFDF($file,$info){
    $data="%FDF-1.2\n%âãÏÓ\n1 0 obj\n<< \n/FDF << /Fields [ ";
    foreach($info as $field => $val){
    	if(is_array($val)){
        	$data.='<</T('.$field.')/V[';
        	foreach($val as $opt)
        		$data.='('.trim($opt).')';
        	$data.=']>>';
    	}else{
        	$data.='<</T('.$field.')/V('.trim($val).')>>';
    	}
    }
    $data.="] \n/F (".$file.") /ID [ <".md5(time()).">\n] >>".
        " \n>> \nendobj\ntrailer\n".
        "<<\n/Root 1 0 R \n\n>>\n%%EOF\n";
    return $data;
}

 

Here is one of the generated .fdf documents:
