I'm using Iframe to view pdf, doc and img files. the pdf and img file open fine in the iframe but my doc file forces me to open MS word. Is this browser specific?? What should I do to open the word document in the iframe?

Anand,
It's machine specific. If someone has their browser set to download word documents, it will open as a download not in the IFrame.
