I tried it with both and only one pdf mime type. It didn't seem to make a difference for me. What does the "x-" indicate, as there are several mime types that use it?

Don't know why I'd decided on inline, (thought I read a definition), but "attachment" makes more sense. Again though, it didn't make any difference for my setup.

Also, if this can't really be accomplished, how does Download.com do it without fail? Do they just assume no one is stupid enough to set their browsers to run executables?

Thanks for everyone's help.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
