Dave,

i wish to create a link to make a pdf from the current record. (see screenshot)

this way the user can get the pdf from the manager too.

could this be possible?

Hi flamerz,

What do you want to show when the user click on "PDF"? And do you want it to display in the browser or download?

The first step would be creating the viewer for the PDF you want displayed.

Hope that helps!

i wish to know if i can add a link named "pdf" inside CMSB like in the image (not in my php files) and with the correct id record number.

i have the viewer and its rendering the pdf fine.

This is my pdf listings:
http://localhost/cesar/pdf.php (this shows the links to the pdf renders, but i wanted to avoid this file and get from inside csmb)

This is my call to the detail:
http://localhost/cesar/cmsAdmin/plugins/createPDF/examples/calltodetail.php?id=2&rand=4461517

(it has a generated rand number to avoid cache)

<?php require_once "../../../lib/viewer_functions.php"; ?>
<?php
$id = $_GET['id'];
$url = "http://localhost/cesar/pdfdetail.php?".$id;
$data = createPDF_fromUrl($url);
createPDF_display('inline', $data, 'example.pdf');
?>

wow.. that was exactly what i needed.

really useful to link to custom views, pdfs...

i think this is a good combo with the Create PDF plugin.

works like a charm!!

best!
