trying to open excel from a page (changes in 2002+)

hi..

i'm trying to have excel open up a webpage which basically contains a
table.

in excel 2000 if i specify content type text/csv this works by
displaying an open/save dialog box and clicking open, launches excel
and displays data as a table (desired result ) however in machines with
excel 2002+ excel simply displays the html code.

trying to specify application/excel opens an excel plug-in inside the
browser which poses a problem becouse the excel has links to pdf file
that obscure the plug-in.
