How to open a new tab with response.addheader?

Question

I am wondering how to open a new tab with the following bit of code. Using "Inline" instead of attachment will open the pdf in the current window. By using "attachment", a Save box opens and download the pdf. I don't want to do either. I want the pdf to open in a new tab or even a new window is fine. Is there anyway? Pdf is dynamically created and can't just use

        <a href="x" target="blank">pdf</a>.

Thanks alot.

        Response.ContentType = "application/pdf"
        Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment; filename=Table.pdf")
        Response.BinaryWrite(m_stream.ToArray())
        Response.End()

It sounds like you know how to get the PDF file to open in the window (using "inline"), but you just want that to be a different window than the one that's invoking this code. It sounds like you have a link that navigates to the PDF creation page, but does so in the current window, and instead of doing that, have it open in a new window, like so:

<a href="/makepdf" target="_blank">Link Name</a>  <-- note that "target" attribute

where /makepdf is a page that runs the code you show above, but using "inline".
