Questionsshow PDF Resume field
James T DiGiovanni asked 5 years ago

I have a mysql table, students. One of the fields is a blob field that contains a PDF of their resume.
Will gridphp be able to show the resume field in the table? I deally, I want the user to click on a record and have the pdf open.

Just to be clear, I do not want to upload files via gridphp. The pdf files are already in the MySQL db and I want to display them in a grid. Show as a link and have them open it.

Hello,

Apologies for the late reply.

Yes, both things are doable.

You can display link that will open / download blob,
and upload blob in database as well.

Sample code:

I get next error

Couldn’t execute query. Column ‘fcontents’ cannot be null – insert into filecontents (fname,fcontents) values (‘Captura de pantalla 2024-11-02 091649.png’, LOAD_FILE(‘/home4/trackexm/public_html/sistema/intranet/temp/Captura de pantalla 2024-11-02 091649.png’))

What is wrong ?

Apparently the parameter $p does not have the value

// insert in db as blob
$g = new jqgrid();
$g->execute_query(“insert into filecontents (fname,fcontents) values (‘{$data[“params”][“fname”]}’, LOAD_FILE(‘{$p}’))”);

Looks like the LOADFILE function is returning null. Here are the possible reasons.

Test it in phpmyadmin first before using in code if the following query works.
insert into filecontents (fname,fcontents) values (‘Captura de pantalla 2024-11-02 091649.png’, LOAD_FILE(‘/home4/trackexm/public_html/sistema/intranet/temp/Captura de pantalla 2024-11-02 091649.png’))
