When viewed in Netscape 4.76 under Linux, all works fine, and a dialog box opens, asking me to save the PDF file as "rapport.pdf", or if I've got acroread installed as a plugin on the machine, automatically launches it and all is fine and works flawlessly.
Hmm, IIRC the Content-Disposition should force a download dialog, i.e. disable automatic launching of attachments - that is at least the way I always use it.
When viewed under Internet Explorer 5.0 under Windows NT 4 (sp5), the dialog box opens but IE tells me it can't download the file.
Have you tried the same without this header? At least I can tell you that I have used reportlab to generate PDFs for IE 5 successfully. cheers, oliver

No, but I'll try that ASAP.

So did I, but from pure python CGI scripts, not from within Zope. thanks for the help. Jerome Alet - alet@unice.fr - http://cortex.unice.fr/~jerome Fac de Medecine de Nice http://wwwmed.unice.fr Tel: (+33) 4 93 37 76 30 Fax: (+33) 4 93 53 15 15 28 Avenue de Valombrose - 06107 NICE Cedex 2 - FRANCE
