This should be configurable. I have seen hosting environments where ownerships and permissions are such that a script does not have write access to anything in their public html directories. In these cases, you have little choice but to use /tmp, and it is advisable to prefix the file names with something unique, such as the session ID.

In order to have pdf-printout working with mod_deflate and IE - one has
to temporary save the pdf-data as a file - and redirect the browser to
this file.

There is a function "print_pdf" in class.pdf.inc.php that checks the
browser - and if it is 'IE' - it will follow this procedure. Files older
than one day will be deleted.

In order to have this to work - it will need a directory which is
write-able to the webserver and within the webservers document-root.
I propose to have this directory within the pdf-section of the API:
"phpgroupware/phpgwapi/inc/pdf/pdf_files".

Any objections to this?

perhaps we could try to have something more generic  so others app could
benefit this writable zone ?

example :

phpgroupware/write
phpgroupware/write/tmp
phpgroupware/write/pdf_files
phpgroupware/write/whatever

what d'you think of it ?

Ok for me.

Sigurd
