No, that's not what's happening. I'm not showing the PDF in a browser window. It's being given to the user with the option to download or view in a separate application. So I am fine with the download option. That's what I'm doing now, I suppose. So since the user is downloading the PDF, they don't need an in-browser window to view it. Once the PDF is downloaded/viewed, I want the new window to die by any means necessary. Surely there's a way. -- Dave M G
