Re: [WEB400] HTML Expert Needed...

["Jim Franz" <franz400@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I do know from my own experience serving dynamically created pdf
documents from a cgi site, that there is a known pdf/netscape/ie problem
where sometimes (and with some versions- always) the pdf page will be blank
if trying to display within the same browser panel. We chose a workaround
published in Adobe Tech Support to change the preferences in Acrobat Reader
to always disply
document in a new panel. Always works. There is quite a bit of info in the
Adobe site,
listing all kinds of problems. It seems that the various versions & features
of the reader, along with various IE & Netscape versions makes for some
bumps.
Is it required that your pdf appear in the existing table? Or can it be the
link to display the file?
