Re: string is too long to fit

First of all I recommend that you download and install FoxWeb 2.6. It's a free upgrade for you and contains some important fixes.

Regarding this particular problem, try using the content type 'application/unknown'. This will cause the browser to pop up the Open/Save dialog, allowing you to save the file to disk, so that you can inspect it and compare it to the original on the server.

Hi,

when i try to open a pdf file ( almost 20 mb) with this command:

html_out = 'Content-type: application/pdf' + chr(10) + chr(10) + readfile(f_name)

I receive the message in subject :'string is too long to fit' on my IE 6.0

There is a way to open a large pdf file passing on foxweb code (old programming method .fxp)

i'm using a 2.1 software version with IIS 5.0 e win2000.

Thank's in advance

Andrea
