I'm the kind of guy who considers CSS and JavaScript too unreliable
with older browsers to use...
I don't think I'm gonna be testing iFrames out any time soon.
Plus, I *KNOW* that some users (e.g., me) configure Acrobat to *NOT*
put a PDF in my browser, but open a separate application, because
that's invariably the way I want to view it, flipping back-and-forth
to the 'net to cross-ref with both windows open.
So, even if it sort of worked, for users who don't do that, or even if
I could force it to work, and not LET them open up in another window,
I don't think that's a Good Idea for keeping happy users, so that
ain't gonna happen either.
But that's just me.
Somebody else reading this thread might say "keen-o" and do it.
