How to use php readfile code to open PDF file in new tab (wysiwyg)


I'm using following code to open a PDF document from database. My problem is the PDF document is opened in the current tab but I want it to open in a new tab instead.

$query = "SELECT name, type, size, content FROM files WHERE id = '$id'";

$result = mysql_query($query) or die('Error, query failed');
list($name, $type, $size, $content) = mysql_fetch_array($result);

header("Content-length: $size");
header("Content-type: $type");
header("Content-Disposition: inline; filename=$name");

echo $content;

I'm using redactor wysiwyg to add the PDF. Let me know if you need more info, thank you.


Solution

  • Solved my problem to open the PDF in new tab. We can't open new tab by using php code. Only can do it by adding the "target="_blank" in redactor.js

    Following is part of the code from redactor WYSIWYG. You can found the "target="_blank" inside the code.

    fileUploadCallback: function(json)
    {
        var data = $.parseJSON(json);
    
        var text = $('#redactor_filename').val();
        if (text == '') text = data.filename;
        var link = '<a href="' + data.filelink + '" target="_blank">' + text + '</a>';
    
        // chrome fix
        if ($.browser.webkit && !!window.chrome) link = link + '&nbsp;'; 
    
        if ($.browser.msie) 
        {
            if (text != '') $(this.doc.getElementById('span' + this.spanid)).replaceWith(a);
        else $(this.doc.getElementById('span' + this.spanid)).after(link).remove();
            this.syncCode();
        }
        else this.execCommand('inserthtml', link);
    
        // file upload callback
        if (typeof this.opts.fileUploadCallback == 'function') 
        {
            this.opts.fileUploadCallback(this, data);
        }
    
        this.modalClose();
    },
