I am getting some weird behavior from PDFs.  I have a number of PDFs in the
IFS.  They are linked to web pages (actually an e-mail) and seem to work
fine in that form.  But if the e-mail is saved as an HTML file, then while
the link to the PDF "works" (i.e. does not give an error) the browser screen
remains blank.  If I take the exact same URL and use it in the open dialog
of Acrobat, the file opens perfectly.

This does not happen with all PDFs - some from other sites work and others
don't.  I see the same problem in both IE and Firefox.

Anyone got any ideas?
