Re: displaying PDF with OAS

It seems to be kind of strange thing, as Internet Explorer

is not able to display the pdf correct, Netscape does.

Used:

owa_util.mime_header('application/acrobat', false);

owa_util.redirect(myFileName);

myFile contains the URL without http.

Any ideas how to get the working with Internet Explorer?
