Hi,  
I have lots of pdfs stored in a database and I am rendering them with:  
send\_data(@library\_item.content,:disposition=\>“inline”,:type=\>@library\_item.content\_type)  
This works fine but I would like it in a separate browser window as  
the users tend to close the window after viewing the pdf and then the  
app has gone!

I have the same problem when linking to stored urls with:  
redirect\_to(@library\_item.url)

Cheers  
George
