That's really not going to be the best way to do it, you need to set
the content type properly or things will break.  Some people's
browsers embed PDFs in the browser window and that won't work with
this method.

My advice would be to add a mime_type field to your db and to make
sure that it's set correctly for the data inserted in the `content`
database column.  That way, browsers will behave correctly when
downloading files.
