This is a test harness to help reproduce the double-fetch issue that we see with Merrill Lynch's application running in MS IE 6 and Reader 7.0.8. When you press the "create" button, an embedded PDF object is created in the same way as the real application does. The URL of the PDF is hard coded in this HTML sample. If you look at the HTTP server logs on your server, you will see that when this sample is run in MS IE 6, the document is fetched twice each time. I have run this sample in Mozilla 1.7.13 and in this case the document is fetched only once.
