Hi,
I am using a java servlet to generate pdf dynamically using iText library
and send that pdf file as an attachment to the users browser.
The header "content-disposition:attachment;filename=test.pdf"
works fine with IE but Netscape displays the file inline (only if this line
is added: response.setContentType("application/pdf");)
How can I make netscape treat the pdf file as an attachment rather than
display it inline?
Thanks
DL
