Web File

I have the following code and work fine

mPDF = new WebFile
mPDF.MIMEType = “application/pdf”
mPDF.Filename = “report.pdf”
mPDF.ForceDownload = False
mPDF.Data = data

// Show PDF in Browser

showURL(mPDF.URL, true )

but the PDF file open in the same url of my project. When I click back Xojo send to me to the login page.

My question is Can I open the pdf file in a separate usr tab.?

Best Regards

There are a few older threads on the topic. Here is one. In short, you need to do a bit of javascript.

Or, you can force download and let the user open the file in their viewer of choice.
