Hello,

I need to change the header of a template, in php it would be done like this:

header("Content-Type: application/msword");
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="filename.doc"'); 

but using php in a template is problematic.
(afaik, it requires kernel hacking... unless recent update non-documented)

Is there a simple way of doing that with eZ ?
any idea is welcome.

Not sure if I understand exactly what you want to do, but you can send variables to templates from php, like this:

$tpl->setVariable( 'MyVariableName', $MyValue );

To be able to use the template-functions, you should probably also include this: (I'm not too experienced in this field, so please excuse me if I'm wrong, or leave something out...)

include_once( "kernel/common/template.php" );
$tpl =& templateInit();

$result = array();
$result['content'] =& $tpl->fetch( "design:MyTemplate.tpl" );
$result['path'] = array( array( 'url' => false,
                                'text' => ezi18n( 'design/standard/MyModule', 'MyModule' ) ) );

Then you should be able to use your variable by simply inserting <b>{$MyVariableName}</b> in your template.

yes, this okay, but a template is an html file in ez, and there is no way I can change the filetype header from html to word.
Usually this is possible when programming in php, but even if I put some php code like the one above, it will not work since ez send his file header first.

So I was wondering if there is any chance to do that with any eZ function that would be hidden or unknow...

Check out:

/lib/ezutils/classes/ezmimetype.php

You can also change:
kernel/content/view.php
Changes here will override the global header information.
