Viewing PDF in Page Viewer Web Part in WSS 3.0, users are prompted to download, open or save

Question

Currently using WSS 3.0 and I am using page viewer web part to display a PDF file though when the page loads, users are prompted with the file download box to open or save the file.

Running Internet Explorer 8.

How can I get the PDF File to display without the File Download prompt?

Answer 1

To open pdf file in browser use this code

                        WebClient client = new WebClient();
                        Byte[] buffer = client.DownloadData("address of pdf file");
                        Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";
                        Response.AddHeader("content-length", buffer.Length.ToString());
                        Response.BinaryWrite(buffer);
                        Response.Flush();
                        Response.End();
