Description:
------------
We configured "output_handler = ob_gzhandler" and it works fine for any text/html output. 

However when our php page creates a pdf to be seen online, the IE prompts for download (while on Netscape it's displayed correctly).

We tried to set 
zlib.output_compression = on
in php.ini and disable with 
ini_set("zlib.output_compression","off")
right before sending pdf and this way seems to work.

Since you fixed the problem (which is most likely an IE 
bug), bogusing...

I did NOT fixed the problem. This was just a circumvention. zlib.output_compression and output_handler do not perform the same (at least on our browsers).
I think that because ob_gzhandler combined with pdf fails with IE (that is used by the majority of users, even if it has a lot of bugs) and not with Netscape this question wouldn't be shortly put in the bogus can. 
I will repost in another way just to make things more clear.
Thanks.
