Hi, I'm using file_column to save images to the file system. To protect the images, I'm uploading to a non-publicly accessible directory. Therefore, I'm using a controller method to send the file when requested:
def get_pic @fctrial = Fctrial.find(params[:id]) send_file(@fctrial.image, {:disposition => 'inline', :type => 'image/jpeg'}) end
As you can see, I'm setting the :type to 'image/jpeg' so obviously this is not correct for image/png or image/gif. How do I get to send the correct content type? Should I save the content type in the database also? Is there some simpler way?
Thanks, Mohit.
