PHPRunner General questions

Hi,
I want to store (oracle blob) and view Autocad *.dwg images.
I seems like the image is stored, but I can't seem to view it on a browser page.
Any ideas on how to resolve ?
Thanks

Hi,
browsers don't support DWG images.

So you are unable to display it on the page unless you convert it to GIF, JPEG or PNG

Hi,
Can I store a PDF file in blob and display it on a browser ?

Hi,
sure, use File View and Edit type for your field.

You'll need an additional field of VARCHAR2 type to store filenames in it.

Hi Tech Support,
I am confused on this thread. Are you saying we can save a .pdf file in as a "blob" in SQL, and can view it with PHPR? If yes, I would like to know how I view a saved .pdf document with PHPR. You mentioned a link, so that is what I am assuming will let me view it. Can you provide a little more detail on this thread so I can try it.
Thanks
Mike

Mike,
you can save PDF file in a BLOB field using File view and edit type.

The resulting page would display a filename in a field.

Click on this filename and Acrobat Reader would be started to display PDF file contents.
