Hi guys, Been on this website for months helping me develop my first application. Now I am down to the last deadline and all the answers found here do not seem to work for me.

I have a data entry page that when the user hits submit it goes to several web and XML sites to gather information. I them put it all toghether in a PDF to be sent back to the client.

My problem is that the PDF replaces the data entry page. For security and a more professional appearance I want the PDF in a new window, while I clear the data entry page for the next entry. I know how to clear the data entry page, I just need to create a new window in which pdf-creator.pl can display the results. And actually pdf-creator.pl creates a unique PDF on my hard-drive. I just need that to be sent to the user in a new window.

Sincerely
