I have a page that contains an IFrame which I use to display PDF reports that are stored in a database. The process is to obtain the PDF from the database, write it to a file and then set the IFrame source property to display it.
The problem is that it works on the initial image but will not refresh when the src property is set to another file. I created a test form using the nwind database and JPG images. BTW the process works in debug mode from within VS 2008 but fails when uploaded to the IIS server.
aspx code
code behind
TIA
