Moreover, it require asking the user to change their setting, which you can't do in real world. Kirk Strobeck Kirk Strobeck Yes, but I need a way to force to open in browser not to download. I have no idea if its possible.
If you aren't forcing it to download, then you ARE forcing it to open in the browser. If it won't open in the browser, it's because the user has specific setting, which you can't override or they don't have PDF reading software. This is wrong. The browser will download because it does not know this mime-type.

Inline handling details When a Content-Disposition is inline or unspecified , the browser will try to open the file in the default embedded viewer. Type detection The file type can be specified by the server with a Content-Type header.
Type handling Upon receiving a file with an inline or unspecified disposition, the browser needs to try to open it within the browser if possible. A bit of a history lesson To see how PDFs are handled, we can delve a bit into web history. For example, the list of registered types for Flash: Those days were also before a lot of the media support that came with HTML5.
Improve this answer. Bob Bob The reason why the values "inline" and "attachment" are used is because Content-Disposition was originally specified for MIME email, where those values are a lot more appropriate : — hobbs.
Indeed - this logic overrides content disposition and is thus important to remember. LightnessRacesinOrbit It doesn't so much override the disposition as it gives the browser a type it can't do anything with barring sniffing other than save to disk.
Granted, the visible effect is the same.
