I am trying to use the PHPWord plugin to convert some HTML into .docx
But when i download the file, I get only messed up charecters like:
PK########�^uK�j�#c###!#######[Content_Types].xml���N�0#E�|E�-Jܲ##5��#*Q>5'��_�8}�=��D#AC�v#)��s�G�G��5�
"j�J6,#,#'��nQ���s~�2L�)a���m#�d|5�m#F�#K�L)�s�r V�#8�T>Z��5.x#�C,��
Here is my code:
<?php
error_reporting (E_ALL | E_STRICT);
#ini_set ('display_errors', 'on');
require_once '../../../../vendor/autoload.php';
$my_content = $_POST['html_content'];
$phpWord = new \PhpOffice\PhpWord\PhpWord();
$section = $phpWord->addSection();
\PhpOffice\PhpWord\Shared\Html::addHtml($section, $my_content);
header('Content-Type: application/octet-stream');
header('Content-Disposition: attachement;filename="teste.docx"');
$objWriter = \PhpOffice\PhpWord\IOFactory::createWriter($phpWord, 'Word2007');
$objWriter->save('php://output');
?>
I already searched into the Web but got no clue how to proceed.
just use the builtin functionality as follows
$phpWord->save('teste.docx', 'Word2007', true);
The last parameter will force a download of the produced file.
add a space between attachement; and filename="teste.docx" so the header will be
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="teste.docx"');
and add the following header:
header('Content-Description: File Transfer');
Update
You can try saving the file to disk and sending from it, I also head problems like this and it solved for me:
$objWriter = \PhpOffice\PhpWord\IOFactory::createWriter($phpWord, 'Word2007');
$objWriter->save($filePath);
header("Expires: Mon, 1 Apr 1974 05:00:00 GMT");
header("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D,d M YH:i:s") . " GMT");
header("Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate");
header("Pragma: no-cache");
header('Content-type: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.document;');
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=file.docx");
readfile($filePath);
unlink($filePath);

I want to download the zip file in php.
Here is my code below.
<?php
ob_start();
// set example variables
$filename = "test.zip";
$filepath = "/home/somewhere/file/zip";
// http headers for zip downloads
header("Pragma: no-cache");
header("Expires: on, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT");
header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate");
header("Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0", false);
header("Content-Description: File Transfer");
header("Content-type: application/zip");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"".$filename."\"");
header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");
header("Content-Length: ".filesize($filepath.$filename));
readfile($filepath.$filename);
?>
And i have a link in my html code.
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
Download
</body>
</html>
The file is downloaded successfully when i clicked the link named 'Donwload' but i can't unzip and open the file.
The file name is test.zip when i downloaded for the first time and it is just the file name. Its extension is created when i click it to unzip.
The extension of file is ". cpgz" not the ".zip".
Here is the log when i downloaded it.
Resource interpreted as Document but transferred with MIME type application/zip:"myPHPfile.php"
Did i do something wrong in my code? or miss something?
How can i fix this?
My uploaded file is already zipped in the server and all i want to do is just download it.
The problem is your filepath, there's a missing trailing "/" after "/home/somewhere/file/zip" the working directory should be:
$filepath = "/home/somewhere/file/zip/";
Now this code works great!
<?php
$filepath = iconv("UTF-8","CP949", "/home/somewhere/zip/test.zip");
header("Pragma: no-cache");
header("Expires: on, 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 GMT");
header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate");
header("Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0", false);
header("Content-Description: File Transfer");
header("Content-type: application/zip");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=test.zip");
header("Content-Transfer-incoding: utf-8");
header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");
header("Content-Length: ".filesize($filepath));
ob_end_flush();
readfile($filepath);
?>
I am facing some problems while generating PDF reports from my application in firefox(ubuntu machine).
my code is:
<?php
$path = "path_to_file" ;
$file = "test.pdf";
header('Content-type: application/pdf');
header("Content-disposition: attachment; filename=$file");
readfile($path);
return new Response("Success");
code is working:
when the PDF-report contains data
when size is more than 1 kb
In windows machine
not working:
when report contains no data or size is in bytes.
It is Generating a binary sting in a new tab in browser instead of generating blank-PDF.
Please help me fixing this issue.Thanks in advance.
Got my answer.This may help others.
<?php
$path = "path_to_file" ;
$file = "test.pdf";
header("Content-disposition: attachment; filename= $file"); //Tell the filename to the browser
header("Content-type: application/pdf");//Get and show report format
header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");
header("Accept-Ranges: bytes");
readfile($path); //Read and stream the file
get_curret_user();
I would do it in this way to avoid some problems with browser applications and caching. Give it a try:
<?php
$path = "path_to_file" ;
$file = "test.pdf";
$content = file_get_contents($path);
header("Content-disposition: attachment; filename=\"".$file."\"");
header("Content-type: application/force-download");
header("Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary");
header("Content-Length: ".strlen($content));
header("Pragma: no-cache");
header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
header("Expires: 0");
echo $content;
die();
EDIT:
If it's really necessary to use the pdf plugin of the browser instead of downloading and opening it immediately with the associated default pdf reader, please replace
header("Content-type: application/force-download");
with
header("Content-type: application/pdf");
I am trying to download a file using PHP. Now the file is downloaded , but it is not getting in the original format (extension missing). I can use the downloaded file after rename it using the original file extension. I am using the following code
header("Expires: 0");
header("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") . " GMT");
header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate");
header("Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0", false);
header("Pragma: no-cache");
header("Content-type: application/".$result['ext']);
header('Content-length: '.filesize($file));
header('Content-disposition: attachment; filename='.$result['file_name']);
readfile($file);
exit;
where
$result['ext']="rar",
$file="file path to the uploaded folder".
I'm pretty sure you have to send the extension to the browser in the file name as part of your Content-disposition header.
For your code, you would have to change this:
header('Content-disposition: attachment; filename='.$result['file_name']);
to:
$filename = $result['file_name'] . '.' . $result['ext'];
header('Content-disposition: attachment; filename=' . $filename);
For example I'm using such a code:
<?php
require_once("D:\server/www/cls/PHPExcel.php");
require_once("D:\server/www/cls/PHPExcel/IOFactory.php");
$objPHPExcel = new PHPExcel();
$objPHPExcel->setActiveSheetIndex(0)->setCellValue('B2', 'HeaderB');
$objPHPExcel->setActiveSheetIndex(0)->setCellValue('C2', 'HeaderC');
$objPHPExcel->setActiveSheetIndex(0)->setCellValue('D2', 'HeaderD');
ob_end_clean();
header("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") . " GMT");
header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate");
header("Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0", false);
header("Pragma: no-cache");
header('Content-Type: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment;filename="report.xlsx"');
$objWriter = PHPExcel_IOFactory::createWriter($objPHPExcel, 'Excel2007');
ob_end_clean();
$objWriter->save('php://output');
?>
It downloads report.xlsx file and doesn't display it in a browser. How do I make it?
Thanks!
Remove this line...
header('Content-Disposition: attachment;filename="report.xlsx"');
The user must have something in their browser capable of viewing the Excel file too.
comment this line
header('Content-Type: application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet');
header('Content-Disposition: attachment;filename="report.xlsx"');
replace also 'Excel2007' to 'html'
$objWriter = PHPExcel_IOFactory::createWriter($objPHPExcel, 'html');
I have built a simple file manager where users can download any type of file such as pdf, word or gif files. I want all of them to download file rather than view it in browsers. The uploaded filenames are stored in database.
<?php
// We'll be outputting a PDF
header('Content-type: application/pdf');
// It will be called downloaded.pdf
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="downloaded.pdf"');
// The PDF source is in original.pdf
readfile('original.pdf');
?>
http://php.net/manual/en/function.header.php
You can use the "Content-Disposition" header for that:
header("Content-Disposition: attachment");
The PHP manual provides an excellent example for that.
Normally setting the Content-Disposition to attachment before sending a file force a download by the browser.
You either need to configure your web server to provide this header for the files or send them yourself via PHP, sending a specific header before like :
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=your_file_name.pdf');
Beware that the first solution is better as you won't risk your downloads being cut because the script running time is too long (you could also alter it).
header("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT\n");
header("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") . " GMT");
header("Content-type: application/pdf;\n");
$len = filesize($filename);
header("Content-Length: $len;\n");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"downfile.pdf\";\n\n");
echo readfile($filename)
source code taken from the TCPDF library
// download PDF as file
if (ob_get_contents()) {
$this->Error('Some data has already been output, can\'t send PDF file');
}
header('Content-Description: File Transfer');
if (headers_sent()) {
$this->Error('Some data has already been output to browser, can\'t send PDF file');
}
header('Cache-Control: public, must-revalidate, max-age=0'); // HTTP/1.1
header('Pragma: public');
header('Expires: Sat, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT'); // Date in the past
header('Last-Modified: '.gmdate('D, d M Y H:i:s').' GMT');
// force download dialog
if (strpos(php_sapi_name(), 'cgi') === false) {
header('Content-Type: application/force-download');
header('Content-Type: application/octet-stream', false);
header('Content-Type: application/download', false);
header('Content-Type: application/pdf', false);
} else {
header('Content-Type: application/pdf');
}
// use the Content-Disposition header to supply a recommended filename
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="'.basename($name).'";');
header('Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary');
$this->sendOutputData($this->getBuffer(), $this->bufferlen);
break;
anyways the most important part is
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="'.basename($name).'";');
and notice that final ; inside the string, without it, it won't work
