I know that when you click on a link to an .exe file, a dialog box pops up and prompts you to Open, Save, Cancel, or check out some Help. Is there anyway you can force that dialog box to appear when you click a link to a .pdf file even though the browser recognizes the file format? Thanks for any help.

Look at these articles:

Then if you have problems with that code there are some fixes (big suprise, eh?):

Hope this helps.

Oh and I didn't really read the articles I kinda skimmed them. I think it uses ASP code. If you have problems with ASP, refer to the ASP forum.
