If you dont want the html to be displayed then it sounds like all you want is to jump to a PDF. So you would just reference that. Instead of an html address being returned just return the PDF location. http://server/pdfs/EW0FNRYH.pdf If the adobe acrobat is loaded correctly then the pdb should show up in the browser.
