How is this link working

If you click on the URL below:

http://www.dynamaths.com/telechargem...3.pdf-p-l.html

a PDF file is loaded (providing the fact that you have installed Acrobat
Reader). How does it work ? How the extension after .pdf is removed ?

Google "browser redirect"

The server sends back a status other than the "OK" status, 200.

It sends a redirect status: http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html

And a "Content-Location" header to tell the browser where to go next: http://msdn.microsoft.com/workshop/a...se_headers.asp
