Apologies if this topic has already been covered. I have a website developed with Webdev. I need to display a external pdf file in the browser window. Can someone advise which is the best method of doing this?

Thanks in advance

Hi Clive,

you need to use "filedisplay"

I hope it's ok to ask in this thread.

Any chance to display the PDF in a new tab? I'd need a solution which works in server code, as the other code of this function runs there. I know the "target" parameter works in browser code, but maybe there's an other solution?

thanks

Your server code STARTS in browser code.
So in the browser side of your code (if your code is in a button, in the
browser click), you can change the destination. The server side will
follow...
