In my application
I use _javascript_ to open a new windows and that pages redirects to the .pdf file
which it just opens in the browser. Also if Adobe Acrobat Reader or more
importantly the web add-in is not installed you will always get that prompt to
download the file.
The code I used is below.
This
opens the new window:
Dim URL As String
URL =
""
Response.Write("<script language=_javascript_>window.open('" &
_
URL
& "')</script>")
And when the page opens it opens the .pdf file that is in the same directory:
Response.Redirect("1.pdf")
Not the best method but it works for me.

Subject: [iText-questions] opening generated pdf + internet explorer (fwd)
hello everybody!
this is a pdf and no itext specific question, but probably someone knows
the trick...
i'm openening itext generated pdfs from a servlet ... and i want acrobat
reader to show up without a "save as file" dialog. unfortunaltely even if
i deselect "allways ask for this type of file", the dialog shows up again.
is there some kind of registry-entry to stop this?
regards
randolph
