William, in order to do this, you have to use an HTML element such as a FRAME or an IFRAME and in that frame call the URL to the document as it is. You cannot have it in the same file because you cannot send two document types with one request. FRAME or IFRAME allow you to have two or more requests sent by the client's browser automatically.

Now I am trying to retrieve the documents from the database using PHP and embed them onto an html web page. I don't want to use hyperlink. The documents will be displayed on the web page along with other information. When I use header() function to specify the type of document I want to display in PHP. I got the error saying that I can't change the header information on a web page. I tried to set the second parameter of header() to True/False but none help. What could I do? William Cheung, B.Sc.
