title: Loading binary data in iframe in IE
body: <p>I'm trying to load binary PDF data in an iframe to avoid reloading a page with a lot of dynamic content. The actual data is obtained through SOAP and a Remobjects server, so that's why I can't just put a link on the page. Works wonderfully in FF, Chrome and Opera, but alas - not in IE. Here's what's going on:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Hidden iframe on page</li>
  <li>Load content via jQuery:<br>
  $('iframe').attr('src', soap_GetAttachmentData.php + '?parameter1=' + pararameter1 + '&amp;pararameter2=' + pararameter2);</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Nothing fancy and quite simple. However, IE tells me it cannot donwnload the php file from localhost (developing locally at the moment). I've tried making changes to the PHP functions, but nothing helps. One thing I noticed was that whenever something in the PHP file fails (thus failing to load any binary data), IE will not complain.</p>
  
  <p>Thoughts?</p>
  
  <p>-- EDIT<br>
  It seems this is actually an issue with IE on localhost. I tried the same thing on a live server and it worked the way it should.<br>
