Hello. I am developing a Tapestry application that has a very straightforward Home page, http://www.jobstoday.nl. With the aid of the RedirectFilter all incoming requests are redirected to '/app'. Most of the times, the Home page opens fine. However, on a very rare occasion, IE under Windows launches Acrobat Reader without document. Just an empty Acrobat Reader application. Except for a screenshot I have no further details. The screenshot shows IE with Google's Toolbar, so it has to be IE version 5.5 or higher. And Acrobat Reader seems rather ancient. Not very helpful. The screenshot was sent by a unsatisfied user with some comments but none of them very helpful. I find this very strange. What mechanism is used by IE, what triggers IE, to launch a PDF viewer? Is it the doctype? Or the content-type? Or the fact that the Home page contains a form with a https action? Or am I overlooking something?
Has anyone seen this weird behaviour before? For the record, I am using Tapestry 3.0.3. Regards, Marcel
