I have a web page where I want to give the user
the choice of viewing a pdf file or to download it.

eg)

<a href=&quot;test.pdf&quot;>view</a>
The above tag will let me view it, but
can someone please let me know how to get
the save as message box to show up so the
user can download the file?

Thanks.

 
For PDF files you cannot get that &quot;save as&quot; box to pop-up...you hve to first view the PDF file and from there save the file by hitting the Floppy-Disk icon...
I have not failed; I merely found 100,000 different ways of not succeding...
