Body
I'm currently building a web application for a client. And i can't download an xlsx file with the originale IE8. Whereas it works with the IE8 compatibility mode of IE9. I'm using symfony 1.4, php 5.2.6. The xslx file is valid. My code : <pre><code>$this->getResponse()->clearHttpHeaders(); $this->getResponse()->setHttpHeader('Pragma: public'); $this->getResponse()->setContentType('application/force-download'); $this->getResponse()->setHttpHeader('Content-Disposition', 'attachment; filename="Export_Excel.xlsx"'); $this->getResponse()->setHttpHeader('Content-Transfer-Encoding', 'binary'); $this->getResponse()->setHttpHeader('Connection', 'close'); $this->getResponse()->setContent($fileData); $this->getResponse()->sendHttpHeaders(); $this->getResponse()->send(); </code></pre> IE 8 say it can't download, because he doesn't find the website or it doesn't answer, and to try later. This is not an url problem, because i can display a blank page with the same ulr. Moreover, this code <pre><code> session_write_close(); $this->getResponse()->clearHttpHeaders(); $this->getResponse()->setHttpHeader('Pragma: public'); $this->getResponse()->setContentType('application/force-download'); $this->getResponse()->setHttpHeader('Content-Disposition', 'attachment; filename="Export_Excel.xlsx"'); $this->getResponse()->setHttpHeader('Content-Transfer-Encoding', 'binary'); $this->getResponse()->setHttpHeader('Connection', 'close'); @ob_end_clean(); flush(); @readfile(sfConfig::get('sf_web_dir').'/'.$filename.'.xlsx'); throw new sfStopException(); </code></pre> Then the xslx file is downloaded as a zip file. Note the session_write_close(); Because the above code didn't work withouth that. Any ideas ? I wish to be able to download my file as a xslx file. (don't have to rename). The first bunch of code works with chrome, firefox, IE 9, IE9 compat IE 8, IE9 compat IE7. But not IE8. UPDATE 2: So the problem is really in the download part. My boss told me to temporary replace xlsx by csv, and i have the same exact problem to download the file. So any ideas to make the file download work with IE8 ?

2. COYes, i am. It seem that my boss used your solution (while i was in vacation), but it didn't work. And i'm not sure that's a bug. All the headers and data in buffer are cleared, before the readfile. My problem lies in bunch of code 1, it should work and send file, but IE8 don't get it.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
