IE5 and fop AGAIN

this question keeps popping up but I still haven't been able to get PDF output to display in IE.

I have tried appending ?, mydoc.xml? and changing the .xml extention to .xsp but no avail. Are there any other suggestions or something I missed?
Cheers,

before you update to IE5.5 it does not work, too. The same for seeing
the SVG-sample using the Adobe svg1.0 pluggin. That works only in
Netscape 4.73 (couldn´t get workin 4.75)

I remember seeing something on microsoft page saying that there is
problem in  IE5 while displaying pdf file. I think they also have a
patch too.

If you change the extension to .pdf everything should work.  Very kludgy
but it is the _only_ thing I know of to work all the time.

IE5 was BAD and ignored MIME type standards.

I don't know why the ? is not working. Are you still just getting a blank
page? I have also noticed that when the pdf first loads the  browser
displays the flash screen for Acrobat and then I just get a blank white
screen, but if at this point I hit the reload button then I get the pdf
file.
