hi, i'm getting an error: This error (HTTP 403 Forbidden) means that Internet Explorer was able to connect to the website, but it does not have permission to view the webpage. this code is supposed to open a pdf file inside the docs folder. i know it concerns some security issues if i change settings of that folder which i do not want to do. i just want to be able to open the pdf file. btw, "heading" is a variable that contains the file name of the pdf file. thank you in advance <META HTTP-EQUIV='Refresh' CONTENT=0;URL=../DOCS/ & heading > --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
w w w.checkupdown.com/status/E403.html check your directory permissions. You can't access the pdf if the directory doesn't have read permission
