Re: Viewing PDF in Internet Explorer
This may be due to the version of Tomcat you are using. It sounds a lot like this bug: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24970 This hit me when I tried upgrading from 4.1.27 to 4.1.29. I am not sure in which subsequest version it was fixed. It may have been 4.1.31. You could always try 5.X?

Re: Viewing PDF in Internet Explorer
I should have been more clear in stating my problem. I am using a Reporting software with Tomcat. The Reporting servlet receives the report request, passes it to the Reporting Server (lives where the data is), and the Reporting Server sends it back to the client (servlet). The output HTML is automatically generated, and apparently the following is happening with PDF (the Excel plug-in works fine). A JSP-Page (or Servlet) like % response.setContentType(application/pdf); % results in the Content-Type-Header Content-Type: application/pdf;charset=ISO-8859-1 which is not allowed according to HTTP-RFCs. The charset may only be appended when the Content-Type is text/*. It causes bad behaviour with IE, that's this can be critical for some Servlets. If Mozilla Firefox is used instead of IE, the pdf loads in the browser. Unfortunately, the decision to switch browsers is not mine and I don't want to switch to IIS with the New Atlanta servlet engine.

If you are needing to get a page to load a PDF you have two options. 1. Set an A tag with the source value set to the location of the PDF. This will load the PDF in the entire window assuming that they have the PDF plug in installed. 2. The other option is to use frames and have the PDF load as the source of one of the frames. This will load the PDF in one of the frames and give you space around it if you need it. Did that answer your question? If not we would need at lest a hint of what problem is.

RE: Viewing PDF in Internet Explorer
I am not familiar with 24970. But what we have done is use an iframe (or a frameset) where the source url points back to a servlet that would set the mime type and pass back the PDF data stream. Hope that helps. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 23, 2005 4:07 PM To: tomcat-user@jakarta.apache.org Subject: Viewing PDF in Internet Explorer I am using Tomcat 5.0.28 and need to have a pdf document open as a plug-in in Internet Explorer.
