Not sure where to post this so I'll try here...

I've written a set of java servlets that return a variety of data to the
browser for display.  Most of the time it's strings... XML, and such.  Now I
want to return a PDF document.  I programmably create my PDF, turn it into a
stream (not a file) set the response.setContentType to be application/pdf
and IE does not know what it is.  Netscape have no problem with it at all.
I was wondering what, if any, is the correct way to tell IE the content type
for my PDF.

code sample

--creates a new XML parser
    UTL_xml mxml = new UTL_xml();
--loads it with the current thing to be done
    mxml.loadXML(strResponse);
--if it finds the tTAG in the XML doc
    if( mxml.isFound("DAT.CONTENT")


--get the content type (application/pdf)  and set it
      setContentType(mxml.getField("DAT.CONTENT"));

--set the content type on the Servlet responce  object
      response.setContentType(getContentType());

--write the sftream out to the response outgoing stream
      curPD.getOutputstream().writeTo(response.getOutputStream());
}
blah blah blah

Thanks
