Closing a Linked to PDF and return to...

I have searched the forums and I cannot find what I am looking for...

Issue: A visitor to the web site clicks on a link that points to a PDF file, Visitor reads the PDF document and then clicks the big red "X" (exit) button and leaves not only the PDF doc but also my site......

Any ideas on how to force the visitor to click on the "BACK" button or maybe a method of greying out the "X" (disable) button.

Thanks

Gary,

Why not open the PDF file in a new window? Then when they click on the big red x, your site will still be open.

Thanks for the response....

I guess the older I get the dumber I get..

I never thought to utilize the drop down "Target" Box and make my selection.

As soon as I read your response I knew what I had missed....

Thanks Again
