No problem here, just a theory question.
The app I have build with PHPRunner is for a weekly publication of construction projects information.
Every week the staff add new construction projects and update previous project information for their customers to view.
At the end of each week, they create pdf files from the PHPRunner created list pages.
Then they save these pdf files, upload to the server, send out an email to quest users with links to these uploaded files.
What I would like to know is.
IF I uploaded these pdf files right into the database itself, Is there any way that I can restrict the guests to see ONLY the PDF files that are for the 1 particular issue they recieved the email about. That way if a quest looks at there email that may be a month old, when they click on the link they are only able to view the pdf files now in the database mentioned in their email.
We dont want the quests to have to sign in, click on the email link and poof the list of PDF files are in front of them.
So the two catches are,
- 1 - no the guests should not have to log in.
- 2 - someway for the email to contain the correct info to pull the proper pdf files.
I can be more specific if needed, just looking for some thoughts on how to accomplish this.
They used to send the pdf's as attachments, but I would like to keep everything in the database, no messing with external files and such.
Any thoughts and suggestions welcome.
Thanks.
