AW: PDF Plugin Launch

[Michael Heinen]

The disposition-type attachment says, that the display should not start
automatic but continegent upon some further action of the user.

Try using disposition-type inline or dont set this header and use instead
of this only the contentType header

Sample:
response.setHeader(Content-disposition, inline;
filename=\report.pdf\);
or
response.setContentType(application/pdf);

Thanks for the help.

Unfortunately I can't get anything to work.  If I use inline instead of
attachment, then nothing is shown.  Same if I only use 
response.setContentType(application/pdf).   I don't know what the
problem is.

I noticed the earlier question about getting the file name to appear.  My
file name does appear correctly when using the Save As dialog.

I think IE has some bugs.

Inline works with my servlet fine (but I have the filename problem)
Did you set content-length header ?

No, I don't set the content-length header.  This is all I do:


response.setContentType(application/pdf);
response.setHeader(Content-Disposition, attachment;filename
=\report.pdf\);


I use IE 5.5, with Service Pack 2 (I think).

Has anyone by chance used IE 6?
