Hello John

In connection with your post Easy PDF Creation in CSS (now locked) found at:
http://forums.yessoftware.com/posts.php?post_id=93514

I am having another go at getting your code for DOMPDF to work on my server.
DOM is installed. I have done the modifications to the dompdf.php file. My temp folders and the fonts folder have write permissions.
The temporary HTML is being created when I uncomment your second echo and it shows the temporary pdf filename.
Your third echo after exec($command) gives me the result below but no PDF creation:

Notice: Undefined variable: PDFfilename in /var/www/vhosts/xxxxxx/httpdocs/brochure2_events.php on line 118

temp/pdf5ppeghk17mhtcpg80g7ucngo50664880.pdf
php -f dompdf/dompdf.php -- -f tmp/pdf5ppeghk17mhtcpg80g7ucngo50664880.pdf -b ./ -s /var/www/vhosts/xxxxxx/httpdocs/brochure2.php tmp/pdf5ppeghk17mhtcpg80g7ucngo50664880.html

When I run passthru and die() I get a blank page, no errors. I haven't got access to the server logs at the moment.
All in all I am just getting my HTML.
Can you see where I may be going wrong

Thanks again

Cheers

Zye ...

Hi

I am going to use the class method instead, in event beforeshow. Works quite well.

  
require_once("dompdf_config.inc.php");  
$html =  
    '<html><body>'.  
    '<p>Some text</p>'.  
    '</body></html>';  
  
$dompdf = new DOMPDF();  
$dompdf->load_html($html);  
  
$dompdf->render();  
$dompdf->stream("my_pdf.pdf", array("Attachment" => 0));

For embedding the images I use this, from the forum - works fine.

' . $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/images/

Happy coding ...
