Is there a way to save pdf's instead of opening them in explorer when you left click or even just stopping them from opening.

I presume that there must be an easy way to do this but I cant seem to find it.

Thanks in advance

This will stop the user from opening the PDF in IE. They will need to Right click and choose 'Save Target As' in order to save the PDF though.

Code: 
<A HREF=&quot;mytest.pdf&quot; onClick=&quot;alert('To download this PDF you need to right-click and select Save Target As...');return false;&quot;>Test PDF</A>
