Question: how can set a getURL function to prompt a PDF file save rather than opening it up in the browser? 

Answer: depends on what version of adobe you have. \nIf you have Adobe 7.0 READER ONLY.\nThen do this.\nOpen Adobe Reader.\nClick on Edit\nClick on Preferences\nUnder preferences, select Internet\nOnce there, the first option on the right should say "display pdf in browser". uncheck that option. close adobe. restart your pc.\nHope that helps. \nif that does not help, then right click on the link and click "save as" or "save link as"
