Nick,
Thanks again for your worry. So, let's go, here goes my situation. I'm
exporting data to another system. That system have an option to be feed by a
password protected zip file. The export activity will be occur in this way:
the user will generate the file on my application and will put this file
into that another system. So, I need generate that file. Maybe one solution
is to generate the file unzipped and determine that user should zip the file
with password on his Windows or Linux operating system. But, I can't let
that responsibility on user hands. So, because that I need to generate the
file already protected.
PS: Sorry my bad english. I'm Brazilian and I'm not fluent english.
Thanks one more time,
Petrus Bastos.

Hey, what about placing the unzipped folder into a dir that has a process
watching it that will pick up the file, zip and protect it and then ftp (or
another delivery mechanism) to the destination?

Bastien,
I thank your help, but I think that your idea doesn't resolve my problem
because I need generate that file online when user clicks on a link.The file
must be obtained at the time he clicks.
Thanks anyway,
Petrus Bastos.

Hi,
I have an application that along filling in some forms, it produces a
pdf file, as confirmation of all entered data.
I want to send this pdf file to a different window/tab of the browser,
so it is displayed and can latter be printed.
In the mean time, the original window contains a confirmation message,
to continue with the work flow.
I would like to do this without use of JavaScript....
Any combination of headers ??
Any hints appreciated.

No, this is not possible.
You have to do at least two requests, one to get the PDF, one to get the
html confirmation message.
Normally you would onle open the pdf in a new window using
target="_blank" for the link. Workflow isn't broken, but you have no
confirmation message.
There are several ways to do what you want with javascript, but without
there is none.

You have to use an anchor tag's target attribute to open the new tab or
window (PHP is server-side and cannot do this);
<a href="/path/to/my.pdf" target="_blank">

You can also do what sites like H&R Block do - create an IFRAME
with the PDF displayed therein. As long as the user has the Adobe
Acrobat plugin, the PDF will display inline, complete with all
toolbars and scrollbars, allowing them to save and print fine.

I was wondering if someone could offer some advice please.
I'm being sent data in tab delimited files which I'm trying to split
into smaller files and convert to comma delimited using PHP.
Now, I can replace the tabs with commas and opening the resulting
files in a basic text editor all looks fine. However when I open the
files in M$ Excel they're still being treated as tab delimited and all
values are being shoved into a single column.
What can I do in the PHP code to specifically make the file CSV and be
treated as such by M$ Excel?
I'm currently just using fopen for old and new files and fwrite.

don't double-click on file_name.csv, instead open MS Excel, then click on
file open and locate your file, then you'll know what to do from there.

When you do this, ensure you escape any commas that may exist in the data.
IIRC, Excel handles this be enclosing the whole field in "double quotes".
Can remember how it handles escaping these though...

I know I can Open in Excel and then go through an "import" process
specifying the delimiter and string enclosure etc, however the files I
used to get were "true" CSV files and opened fine, I'm wondering if
there's some kind a file header or the like that specifies the kind of
data contained in the file.
I don't have an issue with commas within the data, but thanks for highlighting.
Probably just excel trying to be "helpful" again and totally scr3wing
things up :-/

If there are double quotes inside a quoted string, they are doubled. eg.
"This string contains ""quoted content"" in a CSV format that M$ products
can understand."

Well, I think the short answer to that is Yes, curl can do what you want.
You could pull in the page with curl, then go thru it and populate form
fields, then display it. You wouldn't need an iframe, you'd just pull it in
with curl, run thru and populate the fields, then display the finished
product on the screen. One thing you may also want to keep in mind is that
I think you'd have to go through and fix the image links and url links if
they don't have the full url path in the html.
