Showing pdf on browser - aarefi - 04-15-2024
I need a way to show a pdf file on browser in codeignter v4.4.0 or later. I have tried inline method in download response but it always downloads the pdf file.
$this->response->download(.......)->inline();
even setting headers have not helped
return $this->response
->setHeader('Pragma','public')
->setHeader('Expires','0')
->setHeader('Cache-Control','must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0')
->setHeader('Content-Disposition','inline; filename="'.$filename.'"')
->setContentType('application/pdf')
->setHeader('Content-Length',strlen($data))
->download($filename,$data,true);
Would you please help me?

Thank you kenjis. It works great.
Of course I should disable "Internet Download Manager program" so the pdf be shown on the browser. In v3.4.8 and older the pdf file was shown without disabling that program when I set the headers.
