Ot: sending pdf to the browser
I have a cold fusion page that I use to populate a pdf. On the macs it downloads to the desktop first, then when clicked it opens in the browser. I need for it to just open in the browser. This info is sensitive and I can't have it litering the desktop then rely on the user delete the document/empty trash. Is there anyway to force it to open in the browser using code. Currently my cf code is a simple cflocation tag. Or will we need to go change some settings on each mac. (and what settings would that be?) That isn't an optimal solution because we have thousands of macs- thr folks in the field would be highly upset if this is how it has to beany ideas out there??
