Darren Why dont you just use javascript to open a new window with the url to the pdf as the href?

I'm producing a PDF file using HTML2PDF, and sending the resulting file to the browser like this: <cfset tempReturn = generatePDF(tempHeader,tempFooter,tempBody,tempFileName,96,50,50,50,12)> <!--- Set the content-type so Acrobat is invoked ---> <CFCONTENT TYPE="application/pdf" file="#tempFileName#" deletefile="yes"> <!--- Suggest default filename for pdf ---> <CFHEADER NAME="content-disposition" VALUE="attachment;filename=studclasslist01.pdf"> Its running out of frames, so the pdf file replaces the selection form page. There are hyperlinks in the pdf file that allows drill down on data, but these replace the pdf file when clicked on. There doesn't seem to be anyway to specify a target for pdf links like you can in html. I've found that more 'polite' behaviour is forced if you open up the pdf file directly, which causes it to open in the adobe pdf viewer outside of a browser, which means that clicking on any links in the pdf doc cause the link to open up in a browser and not disturb the pdf. The code above embeds the pdf into the browser. Does anyone know of a way to force the pdf to open up outside the browser, just in the acrobat viewer, or else a way to make pdf links open up in a new browser window?
