Open PDF in new window

[kayal cox]

This is the problem scenario: I need to get a bytearray and display it as a pdf document in a new window from an Action class.

Steps taken so far: I have the bytearray in hand and I am able to set the content type, header etc, and open it as pdf. But it is opening in the current window, and I don't know how to make it open in a window of its own.

Setting the content-disposition to Attachment instead of inline, does open it in a new window, but the user is now required to choose Save or Open in an ugly dialog box, and I don't want that.

Pointers in the right direction greatly appreciated. Thanks

you can use javascript function

window.open('url to open','window name','attribute1,attribute2')

eg:-
window.open('/mywebapp/showpdf.do','pdfwindow','765','600')
