code

Ok so I first check isset for the session to check if the user is logged in, I added inside an a tag href="?pdf" then i run the following php
$fullUrl = "http://$_SERVER[HTTP_HOST]$_SERVER[REQUEST_URI]";
if (strpos($fullUrl, "pdf") == true){
	{ $pdf = file_get_contents("www.example.com/pdffolder/example.pdf");
header("Content-type: application/octet-stream");
header("Content-disposition: attachment;filename=example.pdf");
 echo $data; }
I then added this htaccess
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
 RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} ^.+\.pdf$
RewriteRule .* - [F,NS,L]
