That looks right.
I would guess you are getting the error from the method you are using to
call it. I always popup a new window to display the pdf.
Here are the 2 pieces of code I use. One opens the window to feed the
parameter for the pdf selection, and the second is what you have that is the
resultset from the selection.

Subject: Re: Witango-Talk: FM7 PDF from container field
I get a client plug in error when I try this. Can you send it in attachment
maybe the email is messing it up.
The log does not show anything so I can't tell what the error is.
