This problem is both with Netscape or IE and the problem is inconsistent.
At times it displays the pdf file at times it won't.
I am using javascript to open a new window
FDwnld = window.open( fileName , "FileOpen",
"alwaysraised,menubar,resizable,width=500" );
I am passing the fileName as XYZ.PDF. The file is in the same directory as
the jsp page
from which I am calling the javascript to display the pdf.

What browser are you using? Some browsers (IE5 for instance) do not
correctly
read MIME types. In some cases this can be solved by simply putting .pdf (or
whatever) at the and of the servlet(or whatever) is producing your PDF
document.
This clues the browser in to what you are producing. This is a major failing
of
IE5.
