Response.ContentType = "application/pdf"

Asked by KingJosh in Web Development Software

Tags: pdf

I am trying to display a PDF file (which I am being passed from a web service as a binary stream) in a browser, but I am being prompted to save the file instead.  I don't want the user to be prompted; I just want the PDF to be displayed.  Here is the code:

            Dim binaryData() As Byte

            binarydata = GetDataHere()
            Response.ContentType = "application/pdf"
            Response.BinaryWrite(binaryData)
            Response.End()
           
I also tried adding Response.Flush() and Response.Close() just for good measure, but it didn't help.

I'm using ASP.NET.  Any ideas?Start Free Trial
