hello once again :-)

is there anybody out there who has the following working configuration?

* click on servlet link
* pdf streamed by a servlet (not inline)
* save/open with dialog in explorer
* click on "allway open this file type with application(acrobat)"
* click on servlet link
* pdf streamed by servlet (not inline)
* no more save/open dialog (this does not work with my config!)

which explorer/registry/pdf settings are necessary to achieve this?

regards,

randolph
